I'm surprised by the report of port 465 working on some machines.  In my
experience only port 587 works with EMAIL_USE_TLS = True and Python's SMTP
library.  See:

I'm also surprised by the reports of a timeout message.  When I looked into
this before the one that didn't work hung indefinitely, as it essentially
resulted in a connection set up where each side waited forever for the other
side to start the conversation.
