@Guilherme Cavalcanti I haven't thought of using a template for the mail. That will be my next approach for this problem. Thank you for this.
For now I have this in my model: Aankomst = form.cleaned_data['Aankomst'] aankomst = str(Aankomst) message = aankomst + '\n' etc....... from django.core.mail import send_mail send_mail(subject, message, sender, recipients) return render_to_response('thanks_nl.html', { 'message': message, }, context_instance = RequestContext(request)) Which results in a mail with this date: 2010-07-30 The output in the template thanks_nl.html is 2010-07-30 too.
