I’m running smtplib to generate motivations emails to send to my department. As of recently, I was asked to send them out more times throughout the day. With that, I am moving my code from a script to more class based to handle more of the requests. When I moved my code to a class I started getting this error: [Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known.
My script was pretty basic before putting it into a class
Script:

    with smtplib.SMTP("smtp.gmail.com") as connection:
        connection.starttls()
        connection.login(my_email, my_password)
        connection.sendmail(
            from_addr=my_email,
            to_addrs=testing_email,
            msg=f"Subject:{current_day} Motivationnn{motivation}"
        )

When I moved this to a class that’s when it started failing

import smtplib
import random

SMTP_INFORMATION = {
    'gmail': 'gmail.smtp.com'
}


class EmailConnection:

    def __init__(self, sender_email, receiver_email):
        self.sender_email = sender_email
        self.receiver_email = receiver_email
        self.port = 587
        self.correct_smtp = SMTP_INFORMATION

    def generate_connection(self, motivational_quote):
        with smtplib.SMTP(self.correct_smtp['gmail'], self.port, local_hostname='127.0.0.1') as connection:
            connection.starttls()
            connection.login(user=self.sender_email,
                             password='team_password')
            connection.sendmail(from_addr=self.sender_email,
                                to_addrs=self.receiver_email,
                                msg=f"Subject:{time_of_day}Motivationnn{motivational_quote}")
            connection.close()


def get_quotes(file_locator):
    with open(file_locator, 'r') as file:
        quotes = [line.strip() for line in file]
        return quotes

my_connection = EmailConnection('[email protected]', '[email protected]')

my_connection.generate_connection(motivation)

The motivation parameter is an API connection to get quotes. For this example, I pulled a couple down and put in a .txtfile

What am I missing to resolve this error?
