i did change the parameters but those were the problem. when it said "invalid email" that was confusing -- i didn't realize it meant it had trouble sending the email. when i changed it to a server with the proper credentials, it worked correctly. thank you for that.
it might be worthwhile changing that error from "invalid email" to something like "error sending email." but i saw there are also more posts about error messages so you may already be doing that. thank you, matt On Aug 1, 3:45 pm, mdipierro <[email protected]> wrote: > Did you change the parameters in the following 3 lines? > > mail.settings.sender="[email protected]" > mail.settings.login="[email protected]:password" or None # if no TLS > auth.captcha=Recaptcha("public_key", "private_key") > > If the email is invalid it means it cannot send the email.
