How do you configure Django to send mail through Postfix? [closed]
I banged my head a lot before realizing that it is actually quite simple:
add this to your settings.py
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'EMAIL_HOST = 'localhost'EMAIL_PORT = 25EMAIL_HOST_USER = ''EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = ''EMAIL_USE_TLS = FalseDEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'Whatever <whatever@example.com>'Also make sure that a fully qualified domain name (say mybox.example.com) is set up on your server (how),
Then you need to have these lines in your /etc/postfix/main.cf:
myhostname = mybox.example.commydestination = localhost.server.com, localhost, example.comAlso you have to set up proper MX record for your domain (check here) in your dns server (and in your registrar, if you handle dns lookup through you them)
