I am using the Django password reset.
I have this code in my settings.py:
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'
SERVER_EMAIL = '[email protected]'
It redirects me to the right page, but it doesn't send the email. I have checked the Spam folder and such, but still nothing :(
Any ideas are much appreciated!
Edit
I have tried to test it using the console but I get the following error:
>>> email = EmailMessage('Mail test', 'this is a test', to=['[email protected]'])
>>> email.send()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/core/mail/message.py", line 255, in send

raise SMTPException("SMTP AUTH extension not supported by server.")
SMTPException: SMTP AUTH extension not supported by server.
Edit
I have the settings.py configured as above. For some reason it wasn't working before, but now it seems to be. When I run
python manage.py shell
and test it using the EmailMessage and send() function, I get a status code of 1, and I receive the email. However, I am still not getting the email from the password_reset. Any ideas? Thanks everyone for your input!
Set
EMAIL_PORT = 25
.Gmail
uses SSL connection, you need to setEMAIL_PORT = 25
