I know this post is from a while ago, but I just ran into the same issue. Like @tbicr mentioned make sure that app.testing is set to False. As it states in the Flask-Maildocs here:

"If the setting TESTING is set to True, emails will be suppressed. Calling send() on your messages will not result in any messages being actually sent."

This was exactly my problem. I implemented Google reCAPTCHA into one of my forms and the app.testing was set to True so I did not have to hit the reCAPTCHA box every time. By removing the app.testing or by setting it to False, the emails were able to be sent.
