Django send_mail not working

问题

When the view that sends the email is used nothing happens, i then entered send_mail(...) into the python shell and it returned 1 but i didn't receive any emails.

This is my settings.py

EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'workorbit@gmail.com'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'P@ssw0rd5'
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True

This is the view:

def send_email(request):
    send_mail('Request Callback', 'Here is the message.', 'workorbit@gmail.com',
        ['charl@byteorbit.com'], fail_silently=False)
    return HttpResponseRedirect('/')

Adjust your settings thus:

DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'workorbit@gmail.com'
SERVER_EMAIL = 'workorbit@gmail.com'
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'workorbit@gmail.com'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'P@ssw0rd5'

Adjust your code:

from django.core.mail import EmailMessage

def send_email(request):
    msg = EmailMessage('Request Callback',
                       'Here is the message.', to=['charl@byteorbit.com'])
    msg.send()
    return HttpResponseRedirect('/')

If you don't care Preventing header injection: (you should care about it: https://docs.djangoproject.com/es/1.9/topics/email/#preventing-header-injection, but let's continue)

The settings.py:

EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'user@gmail.com'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'pass'
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True

The views.py (example):

from django.views.generic import View
from django.core.mail import send_mail
from django.http import HttpResponse, HttpResponseRedirect

class Contacto(View):
        def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
            data = request.POST
            name = data.get('name', '')
            subject = "Thanks  %s !" % (name)
            send_mail(subject, data.get('message', ''), 'user@gmail.com', [data.get('email', '')], fail_silently=False)
        return HttpResponseRedirect('/')

This is a dangerous way to send an email

When you first try to send the email, you'll receive a google email advising not to do it. You must 'Activate' the 'Less secure apps' (https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps) and try again. Second time works.

Google now provides a method to generate a password that you can use for applications that need to relay mail. its different from the password that you would use to login through webmail.

Sign in to Google and start using App Passwords. This allows you to use a 16 digit password to access google services including ability to send out email. Refer below
