Not directly - once you've returned from your view, that's it. One possibility though is not to do the email sending within the view. Instead, the view simply sets an attribute in a table somewhere to say that an email needs to be sent to a certain user. Then you have a cron job that runs regularly, extracts the users with the flag set, and sends the email. You could perhaps achieve the same thing using message queues - have your view send a message to the queue, and a separate listener which receives the message and sends the mail. -- DR. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
