So, I see what has happened. (Interesting it is) I upgraded django to 1.2 to try out:
$pip install --upgrade django Then, back to work again: $pip install django==1.1.2 I don't think pip removed the pyc files when replacing, which is making it import mail module. So, This problem should be solved if I removed all pycs. I did. $find -name "*.pyc" -delete I still have the same problem. I am sure, I am using 1.1.1 right now, because in my view I do: import django django.get_version() and it prints: 1.1.1 (This is no major problem, I know I can delete the entire folder and install again. But it is interesting how it happened, which could be a bug in pip.)
