1827: Sending notification emails fails

What version are you running?

ReviewBoard 1.5 RC2
RHEL 5 using ReviewBoard-1.5-16.rc2.el5 from the EPEL-5 repository
Django 1.1.1
python-psycopg2

What's the URL of the page containing the problem?
N/A

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Configure email in the admin interface
2. Publish a review request, a review, or a reply


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Email should be sent to the intended recipients.
No email is sent.

I added some debug logging to reviews/models.py and notifications/email.py to write a log message when sending the Django signal and receiving it in the email.py handler.

The send message is printed, so I know that reply_published.send() is called, however I never see the receive message. So it looks like there's something wrong with the signaling.

Could this be a Django 1.1.x vs. 1.2.x issue? As noted above, I'm still on Django 1.1.x and have restrictions on my ability to upgrade.

What operating system are you using? What browser?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5

Please provide any additional information below.

An additional bit of information.
We're using mod_wsgi 3.2 for our python apache plugin, not mod_python or fastcgi.

Does ReviewBoard test against mod_wsgi?

Did you ever figure this out? I don't know if it's Django 1.1 vs 1.2. Any luck with a more modern 1.5.x release though?

Please close this bug. This mail issue is somehow caused by integration with our account system plugin for authentication. It's not a ReviewBoard issue.
