As Daniel said, you could use a queueing service or a database table to store the fact that an email should be sent later. Wouldn't you want to show the user an error message if sending the email failed? Btw, the time needed to send an email is not so long normally. I think the benefits (possibility of showing an error message, less complexity) outweigh the downsides (a bit longer processing time) Matthias -- FeinCMS Django CMS building toolkit: http://spinlock.ch/pub/feincms/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
