Here is

smtp = smtplib.SMTP(server)

I want to make it more customizable with additional parameter of timeout and port.

I want to send email using SMTP python with the port that runs on any host (but don't want to use port 25 ) and I'm unable to set out timeout on it.

Have you tried setting port and timeout ? 

 smtplib.SMTP(server, port=1234, local_hostname='your_local_host', timeout=10)

Or tried reading the documentation?
