Yeah, I suppose I could just specify the host and scheme inline, thanks for the tip.
The emails are generated using a view template, which the mailer routine (called from cron every minute) retrieves with a call to response.render(). They're then posted to a PHP webservice which does the actual mailing. I set it up that way because for some reason the python mail service wasn't sending emails properly when they were sent to a mobile device (e.g. [email protected]).
