Perhaps.  It might be useful to enable trace-level logging (--trace), which is
very verbose and contains a bunch of info about the SSL connection steps.  I'm
not sure if anyone else also suggested seeing whether this occurs on
connections to different mailhosts, or just the one you're trying now?

Well, Python 2 isn't going to disappear when it stops being officially
supported.  I strongly suspect lots of us will still be running Python 2 code
in 2030 and later.
