IOError when trying to send email in Django app

[Tom Tanner]

I have a Django app running on a server with uWSGI and nginx. 

In my `local_settings.py` file I have this:

    ###############

    # EMAIL SETUP #

    ###############

    EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.privateemail.com'

    EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'sup...@mydomain.com'

    EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'MY EMAIL PASSWORD'

    EMAIL_PORT = 587

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

    EMAIL_USE_TLS = True

    

    

    ########################

    # OTHER EMAIL SETTINGS #

    ########################

    ADMIN_EMAIL = "ad...@mydomain.com"

    SUPPORT_EMAIL = "sup...@mydomain.com"

When I fill out the `/password_reset/` template with an email and submit the form, the email I enter gets no email. 

I see these lines in my `uwsgi.log` file after I submit the password reset form.

    Fri May 11 17:48:10 2018 - SIGPIPE: writing to a closed pipe/socket/fd (probably the client disconnected) on request /password_reset/ (ip 73.49.35.42) !!!

    Fri May 11 17:48:10 2018 - uwsgi_response_write_headers_do(): Broken pipe [core/writer.c line 248] during POST /password_reset/ (73.49.35.42)

    IOError: write error

What error is this? Why won't the password reset email send?

You probably already have but check the docs

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/topics/email/

And your postfix configurations (or whatever email send system you are using)
