If you are running your app with the dev server, it does not send an
email unless you set it up to do so.
Here is what the GAE documentation says:
Using Mail
The development web server can send email for calls to the App Engine
mail service. To enable email support, the web server must be given
options that specify a mail server to use. The web server can use an
SMTP server, or it can use a local installation of Sendmail.
To enable mail support with an SMTP server, use the --smtp_host, --
smtp_port, --smtp_user and --smtp_password options with the
appropriate values.
dev_appserver.py --smtp_host=smtp.example.com --smtp_port=25 \
--smtp_user=ajohnson --smtp_password=k1tt3ns myapp
To enable mail support with Sendmail, use the --enable_sendmail
option. The web server will use the sendmail command to send email
messages, with your installation's default configuration.
dev_appserver.py --enable_sendmail myapp
If mail is not enabled with either SMTP or Sendmail, then attempts to
send email from the application will do nothing, and appear successful
in the application.
