To send mail use the Mail API - that is the only supported way to do it.
In Production - on appspot - the Mail API sends emails via Googles infrastructure. But the development environment is emulating the real environment. It of course cant use Googles infrastructure, so instead you tell give it a SMTP server it can use directly. The SMTP interface is not exposed to the actual application (because it would be non functional online anyway) On Wed, Sep 19, 2012 at 2:07 PM, ruralgeek <zbhn...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello !
