Re: Email Sending In Django not working

It's more likely that google is not accepting the credentials you are providing or else the smtp server has just hung up due to several requests.

You can do it without using the django.core.mail. I've written an article recently on dev.to

https://dev.to/codewithlaksh/how-to-send-emails-using-python-django--8c3

Follow up and hope the article helps you

Thanks and Regards

Good day team,

I have been facing this challenge in sending mail in django

here is the error "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond"

Code

def send_verification_email(request, user):

    from_email = settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL

    current_site = get_current_site(request)

    mail_subject = 'Please activate your account'

    message = render_to_string('accounts/emails/account_verification_email.html', {

        'user': user,

        'domain': current_site,

        'uid': urlsafe_base64_encode(force_bytes(user.pk)),

        'token': default_token_generator.make_token(user),

    })

    to_email = user.email

    mail = EmailMessage(mail_subject, from_email, message, to=[to_email])

    mail.send()

Settings

EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.google.com'

EMAIL_POST = '587'

EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'myemail'

EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'email_password'

EMAIL_USE_TLS = True

Any solution will be appreciated. Thank you
