Can you explain it in a more brief way. Like where are you hosting the site and which site you are using to send the mail from(like gmail, yahoo or ??) and please fill in the mail settings(in db.py) that you have used to make it work. In my case the case was that the server was from US and gmail has some kind of firewall to disable requests from this area. Finally I used the email of the site itself which allowed me to host and the mail settings was given by the site people themself...
