Am sure many in this mailing list are running websites that send emails to customers from their django applications. And also emails from the operating system(like logwatch etc). I was wondering how you do you achieve both?
For example, when i use a gmail id, i see that i am able to send an email from django directly, without setting up anything(no postfix etc). The following works, but the same doesn't if i try with a non-gmail id. I guess it has to do with my domain provider not allowing certain ports and i fear breaking the ToS. In settings.py: EMAIL_USE_TLS = True EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.in' EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'usern...@gmail.com' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'pwd' EMAIL_PORT = 587 And from the shell.. from django.core.mail import EmailMessage email = EmailMessage('Hello', 'World', to=['m...@gmail.com']) email.send() I do not want to take the hassles of setting up an email server for sure. I am just looking for a simple and maintainable way that confirms the deliverability of the email :) Venkat -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
