"[Errno 101] Network is unreachable" when trying to send email using Django
django, email, gmail, python
Solution
This is likely to have to do with the port you are trying to send email from on the blue host machine.
They probably block ports like that for security reasons.

Problem
For some reason I am getting this error when trying to send an email (with gmail) using Django. ``` [Errno 101] Network is unreachable ``` The weird part about this is that it only seems to happen when my web app is running on my server (bluehost). It works fine when locally. Here are my email settings ``` EMAIL_USE_TLS = True EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com' EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'email@gmail.com' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'FakePassword' EMAIL_PORT = 587 ``` Any idea as to how I can fix this?
