@sean Need your assistance on one of our Django web apps, the email is not firing, it was okay before but now it is playing up we are not receiving any email.

luke I've checked your Django project settings for the three sites you've mentioned.

Your Django email settings are not correct:

You have EMAIL_HOST set to an IMAP server instead of a SMTP server, ie EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.us.opalstack.com'
You've not specified the type of encryption to use, ie EMAIL_USE_TLS or EMAIL_USE_SSL
You've not specified a port, ie EMAIL_PORT = 587 or EMAIL_PORT = 465

The settings you should be using are documented here: Sending Email from Django

Please try the documented settings and let me know how it goes, thanks.

sean i had tried similar settings on documentation on the three apps but still not firing . check this site out please :inscal.globalbedbank.opalstacked.com

email still not sending

sean

luke the domain of the sender address (ie SERVER_EMAIL and DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL) in your Django project settings is invalid.

Sender address domains must be registered domains with valid MX records.

luke

sean we were using email address set up on opalstack as sender and default . If we try another email as sender or default but is hosted on another host still no luck

sean

luke I've tested sending mail from your app using the email example in the Django docs and that seems to work fine with your current settings.

Maybe the problem you're having at this time isn't related to your mail settings, ie some other failure in your app is happening before it can send the message.

Do you see any errors in ~/logs/apps/NAME_OF_APP/uwsgi.log?

luke

sean when i replace it with Gmail smtp it works

luke

sean have use own email host and it seem to be working now

luke Ok, if you'd like me to troubleshoot this further then please do the following:

Put your Opalstack email settings back in place.
Email support@opalstack.com with the steps that we can take to cause your site to send an email.

We'll look into it further once we have that info.
