OK, I ran the debugger and here is what I came up with: -> print "CHECK MESSAGE :" (Pdb) repr(email_message) "u'test1'" (Pdb)
It looks like it is unicode text. The strange thing is if I manually update the fields in the database with SQL from the PostGres command prompt the email then works. This is a very strange issue.
