Gmail without TLS

[linksterman]

On this site, someone said that to send a message over smtp gmail, you didnt need tls. im working with a port of python with basically supports everything but https, ssl, tls so libgmail, etc doesnt work. i have found a way to get my mail without those things(via gmail atom feeds) but i need a way to send messages.

this is the code that i am working with (gmailer):

import smtplib
 
class Gmailer:
    """
    Send email through Gmail.
 
    use: Gmailer(user, password[, host])
    use: send(to_addrs, subject, message[, from_addrs])
    """
    host='smtp.gmail.com'
 
    def __init__(self, user, password, host=None):
        """
        Set Google username and passsword.
 
        use: Gmailer(user, password[, host])
        """
        self.user=user
        self.password=password
        if host: self.host=host
 
    def send(self, to_addrs, subject, message, from_addr=None):
        """
        Set username and passsword
 
        use: send(to_addrs, subject, message[, from_addrs])
        """
        if not from_addr: from_addr=self.user
        data = "From: %s\nTo: %s\nSubject: %s\n\n%s" \
                    % (from_addr, to_addrs, subject, message)
        try:
            server=smtplib.SMTP(self.host)
             server.ehlo()
            server.starttls()
            server.ehlo() # This must be done before and after starttls().
            server.login(self.user, self.password)
            server.sendmail(from_addr, to_addrs, data)
        except: raise
        try: server.quit() # This always fails and can safely be ignored.
        except: pass
mail = Gmailer('[e-mail]', 'mypass')
try:
    mail.send('[e-mail]', 'My Subject', 'This is my body!')
    mail.send('[e-mail];[e-mail]', 'My Subject', 'This is my body!')
except:
    print "Failed."
 

if i comment out the underlined parts, it doesnt not work. any hints?
