title: send_mail is clearly sending email but no email is showing up in inbox
body: <p>I have these email settings in my <code>settings.py</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
  EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
  EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'email@myemail.com'
  EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'password'
  EMAIL_PORT = 587
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and am using this function to send email to recipients.</p>
  
  <pre><code>def send_email(subject, body, recipients, agent_email, bcc=[], attachments=[]):
      recipient_list = []
      if isinstance(recipients, (str, unicode,)):
          recipient_list.append(recipients)
      else:
          recipient_list = recipients
  
      recipient_list = recipient_list + bcc
  
      send_mail(subject, body, settings.EMAIL_FROM, recipient_list)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>while it looks quite clear when I go to the <code>django-admin</code> site that the email was indeed sent and no error messages show in the log files whatsoever, when I go to check the email that it was sent to, nothing shows in the inbox. I would expect to see the email there, especially given that it shows as sent in <code>django-admin</code>. Have I misunderstood something about how email is sent from the system?</p>
  
  <p><b>EDIT</b></p>
  
  <p>I also checked my spam folder and added</p>
  
  <pre><code>EMAIL_FROM = 'email@myemail.com'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>because I noticed it wasn't there before. Same results, though. Email appears sent according to <code>django-admin</code> but no email in my inbox.</p>
