Ok I checked my "Sent" folder and there was definitely not an email sent
from the website. I tried sending an email from the shell as suggested (why
didn't I think of that?) and this is what I got:
In [1]: from django.core.mail import send_mail
In [2]: send_mail('Test from Django', 'This was a shell email',
'[email protected]', ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'])

It looks like you're right and the Gmail authentication was not working,
but Mezzanine swallowed the error on the live website. I don't know if
Google has updated their interface for email clients, but I'll see if I
can't get it sorted and then report back. Thank you for setting me on the
right track!
