title: Python Django Gmail SMTP setup
body: <p>I am trying to send email from Django by setting up gmail smtp.
  But everytime it is returning me 0 status. I have searched different relevant answers in stackoverflow and i am setting up the smtp server the same way but still it is not sending any email..
  Below is my setting file</p>
  
  <pre><code>EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
  EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
  EMAIL_PORT = 587
  EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'my gmail account'
  EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'my gmail account password'
  DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'my gmail account'
  DEFAULT_TO_EMAIL = 'to email'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Below is my code</p>
  
  <pre><code>from django.conf import settings
  from django.core.mail import send_mail
  print "Sending Email"
  mail_title = 'Test Email'
  message = 'This is a test email.' 
  email = settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL
  recipients = [settings.DEFAULT_TO_EMAIL]
  print send_mail(mail_title, message, email, recipients, settings.EMAIL_HOST_USER, settings.EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD) 
  print "Email Sent"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But everytime it print status 0 which means email is not sent. About the environment i am running this code on Amazon EC2 instance which has ubuntu as an OS and Apache as server..</p>
  
  <p>Do i need to do additional setups for sending email through gmail smtp??
  Much appreciate your help
  Thanks in advance</p>
