Ok I got basic emailing to work. Here's what the problem was:
When I made my project, I used the wizard. The wizard created a file called
0.py (GREAT NAME) that was overriding my mail.settings.* variables. So no
matter how I set them, they'd get overwritten with things like ' '
Anyways, the basic e-mailing seems to work now. What doesn't work is the
e-mail upon registration, which I set with
auth.settings.registration_requires_verification = True
auth.messages.verify_email = 'Click on the link http://' + \
request <http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/request>.env.http_host
+ \
URL <http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/URL>(r=request
<http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/request>,f='user',args=['verify_email'])
+ \
'/%(key)s to verify your email'
Are these values also being overwritten somewhere that you guys know of??
Thanks
P.S.
What a poor design decision to have mail.settings in the db.py file, then
at the bottom have them reference another variable in a file called
0.py....seriously??
