Please help us debug this... look into line 555 of gluon/tools.py
server =
smtplib.SMTP(*self.settings.server.split(':'))
if self.settings.login != None:
if self.settings.tls:
server.ehlo()
server.starttls()
server.ehlo()
server.login(*self.settings.login.split(':'))
result = server.sendmail(self.settings.sender, to,
payload.as_string())
server.quit()
add some print statements. Where does it fail? how?
