Ok - I think I got this all working - trick is to use stunnel to make it so you can use Google's smtp server, which requires an SSL connection.
props to http://www.projectpier.org/node/817 for the related guide I got this working from. 1. Install stunnel from http://www.stunnel.org/download/ 2. Configure stunnel's stunnel.conf Here is my stunnel.conf: cert = stunnel.pem socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 debug = 7 output = stunnel.log client = yes [smtpg] accept = 127.0.0.1:25 connect = smtp.gmail.com:465 ;or connect = 72.14.215.109:465 so there's no DNS lookup 3. Run stunnel from the Start Menu - the "run stunnel" shortcut 4. Run the dev server like this: google_appengine\dev_appserver.py --smtp_host=localhost -- smtp_user=<your gmail> --smtp_password=<your gmail password> <your app> working mail in the test environment :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
