I have a perfectly fine script that works fine when I run it locally to authenticate using IMAP4_SSL and imaplib as follows:
mail = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL(host_incoming, port_incoming)
mail.login(user, password)
mail.list()
However, when I host this part of the code in the Google Cloud Functions, then I receive the error:

If I use Google Gmail credentials instead (for host, port, user and password), then no errors are provided and everything works fine. So what is wrong with the email or server that I am using and how could I check this?

No its managed by another company. This company is providing my internet connection. How can I test for the failing host?

Have you added a billing account for your the project containing your Cloud Function? Functions on the free tier cannot communicate with external networks and will fail DNS lookup.

Sorry, not implying you are cheap! Newly created functions will be on the free tier until a billing account is explicitly added.

You need to add billing for each cloud function??
– JohnAndrews
Mar 7 at 19:18
No, for each new project. If the project already has billing added though, this might not be the cause.
