I have my django site setup on my production server, a Debian machine with
exim4 and django 1.6. I use smtp.cox.net to relay my emails from my server.

I can send emails from the server using mutt.

I can also send an email from a python prompt in my virtual environment on
the server using this (with a different to and from address) after
importing my projects settings.py file:

>>> from django.core.mail import send_mail
>>> send_mail('Subject here', 'Here is the message.', 'f...@example.com', ['
t...@example.com'], fail_silently=False)

However, when I get an error on the site (ie self-induced), I do not get
any emails from the site. I have ADMINS setup correctly per the docs. In
settings.py I just have the basics - localhost and port 25 for email.

Perhaps the error I introduced was to severe (an import error is
settings.py). I also tried accessing a page that does not exist, and no
email.

My first question: How can I simulate/force an error on the site to get an
email so I can make sure the site can send an email to the admins?

Thanks,

Mark
