I am finding this very odd. This piece of code doesn't send two email messages. The first way using send_mail is working find. While using EmailMultiAlternatives isn't sending any messages. I've already debugged user.email, and it is using failed email addresses, in case of the obvious. This code runs from a management command.

send_mail("test", "test", "test@test.com", ["my@email.com"])                                                                    
msg = EmailMultiAlternatives(
             self.TITLE,
             self.generate_text_content(cans, cants, "week"),
             settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL, [user.email])
msg.attach_alternative(self.generate_html_content(cans, cants, "week")
                    ,"text/html")
msg.send(fail_silently=False)

That's the strangest thing. No errors, not even with fail_silentfly=False. – Jonas Geiregat May 23 '12 at 21:17

Isn't there any `try...except` wrapping it? What does `msg.send()` return? – ilvar May 24 '12 at 17:39
Not even catching an exception. Guess I should contact my hosting provider. – Jonas Geiregat May 24 '12 at 19:40
I am having the same issue please help me if you solved the problem – FightWithCode Jun 15 '19 at 18:46
@FightWithCode can you check if `user.email` is None or not? – ruddra Jun 19 '19 at 02:30
How have you set up `smtp` connection? @JonasGeiregat – Vishnudev Krishnadas Jun 21 '19 at 02:25

what is your email backend? check `settings.EMAIL_BACKEND` – rabbit.aaron Jun 21 '19 at 06:39
