Django not sending emails to admins

Question

According to the documentation, if DEBUG is set to False and something is provided under the ADMINS setting, Django will send an email

Answer 1

Try this

# ./manage shell
>>> from django.core.mail import send_mail
>>> send_mail('Subject here', 'Here is the message.', 'from@example.com',['to@example.com'], fail_silently=False)

With a to@example.com that you actually get email at.
