Issue on reset_password/ endpoint

[ryanfadeau]

Hi guys, I'm using djoser for all my authentication endpoint and only one is failing, the reset_password endpoint.
It looks like it's something with djoser when looking at these logs...
THis error occurs only in my production environnement, not in local environment

I would like to know if it's something due to my configuration or djoser since it's only this endpoint which failed.
Thank you guys

The issue seems to be that django is trying to send emails using an actual email server. For testing, add EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend' in settings.py. This will simulate sending emails by printing the email to the console where the django server is running. See the docs here.
