Comment (by gannetson):
Something like this throws an error when SMTP creds are wrong:
{{{
from django.core import mail
from django.core.mail.backends.smtp import EmailBackend
def _check_mail_settings(self):
connection = mail.get_connection()
if isinstance(connection, EmailBackend):
connection.open()
}}}
But I think this should be a new ticket/feature. This ticket, to me, is
really about sending an actual mail. Could I propose a new ticket to
create `testconnections` (like @imgraham suggested) that's to test other
connections (cache, ...) as well?
