Question

I read from

http://www.packtpub.com/article/friends-via-email-social-web-application-django-1.0

and follow the steps: => And change my setting.py

SITE_HOST =  127.0.0.1:8000 
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL =  KSO Publisher <soeng@xxxx.com.kh> 
EMAIL_HOST =  smtp.xxxx.com.kh 
EMAIL_PORT =  25 
EMAIL_HOST_USER =  myusernamea@xxxx.com.kh 
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD =  mypassword 
EMAIL_USE_TLS = False

after I go to the command line

python@python-desktop:~/workspace/kso$ python manage.py shell
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul 22 2009, 15:35:03) 
[GCC 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu3)] on linux2

>>> from django.core.mail import send_mail
>>> emails = send_mail( Subject ,  Body of the message. , soeng@xxxx.com.kh ,[ pythonkhmer@gmail.com ])

I got the error message.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/core/mail.py", line 345, in send_mail
    connection=connection).send()

    return self.get_connection(fail_silently).send_messages([self])

    (code, msg) = self.connect(host, port)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/smtplib.py", line 310, in connect
    raise socket.error, msg
error: (110,  Connection timed out )

Anybody know what exactly the problem.And how Can I sent mail using django framworks

Reference I have read:

Answer 1

Connection timed out means Django couldn t connect to your email server. Type this on a command line:

telnet smtp.xxxx.com.kh 25

You should get a response from the email server, something like:

220 rufus Python SMTP proxy version 0.2

If you don t get a response,you have found the problem.

Here s a handy command to run a local development server, on Linux:

sudo /usr/lib/python2.6/smtpd.py -n -c DebuggingServer 127.0.0.1:25

Answer 2

You code looks correct, so I think there is a problem with your settings. Are you positive that specified the EMAIL_HOST and EMAIL_PORT correctly?

Note: Its EMAIL_USE_TLS not MAIL_USE_TLS and you can set your from address (3rd parameter in send_mail function) to None if you want it to take your DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL value.
