Answer 1

You code looks correct, so I think there is a problem with your settings. Are you positive that specified the EMAIL_HOST and EMAIL_PORT correctly?

Note: Its EMAIL_USE_TLS not MAIL_USE_TLS and you can set your from address (3rd parameter in send_mail function) to None if you want it to take your DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL value.
