Confirmation mail didn't receive

[Kaleesastha]

Shaker,

   I deployed ReadTheDocs in an image model and created an account. But i didn't receive any confirmation mail . Please help me to resolve this.

Thanks,

What I think happens, on default ReadTheDocs uses console email sender:

EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'

What should be used is this one:

EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'

That being said, working on solution.

Hi guys same issuer here, cannot log with admin/admin because the mail is going nowhere, i tried to find the EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend' variable but i cannot find the file where it is ?

anyway you can tell me where i can modify my smtp information ? Or maybe there is an option to remove the email validation ?

Thanks !

Same issue here, and I have no idea because the email was sent to admin@localhost.

@mtasuandi @Alutun Try login with admin/admin to http://localhost:8000/admin. There are many administrative tools, including admin's email. It worked for me.

@nikitakuhta - Thank you! Saved a bunch of time! @sqawasmi - Please update the documentation to reflect @nikitakuhta's comments... this is a valued tool and is used by many in our organization. Thanks in advance!

@sqawasmi I see you're not being active in years, (hope everything's well), but if you happen to read please pass the ownership to someone in this chat.
It's a pity because your docker has 100k downloads, it's really useful but with some minor update it could keep helping everyone

thanks
