------------------------------------------------+------------------------
the django docs state that, while sending mail, if no from_email is
passed, it will use the `DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL`.
source: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/email/
> **from_email**: A string. If None, Django will use the value of the
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL setting.
However, when using the send_mail function, the `from_email` argument is
not optional.
A workaround for this right now is this.
{{{
send_mail(
subject=subject,
message=message,
recipient_list=[self.user.email],
from_email=None
)
}}}
giving a default value of `None` to it will resolve this issue.

Comment:
`DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL` will be used if you explicitly pass `None` to the
`from_email` argument.
We cannot change the order of arguments as it would be backward-
incompatible.
