Django Email backend (continues to send email from the wrong sender)

Question

I have several instances in my project where I am trying to send an email in the form of Django.

I want to be able to hard code the sender of the email in the view. However, when I try to do this, it continues to send emails from the default account specified in my settings file.

Here is an example:

        if testform.is_valid():
            beta=testform.save()
            subject="Hi Beta Tester"  
            sender="[e-mail]"

            recipient=[testform.cleaned_data['email']]

            text=loader.get_template('registration/beta_email.txt')
            html=loader.get_template('registration/beta_email.html')

            site_name='mysite'
            d=Context({'site_name':site_name})
            text_content=text.render(d)
            html_content=html.render(d)
                #This sends two mail versions, plain text and html
            msg=EmailMultiAlternatives(subject, text_content, sender, recipient)
            msg.attach_alternative(html_content, "text/html")
            msg.send()

            return HttpResponseRedirect('/splash/')

I thought I could send here explicitly the sender argument. And yet, when I test it, an email is sent from the address specified in my settings file, configured as follows:

       EMAIL_USE_TLS=True

       EMAIL_HOST='smtp.gmail.com'

       EMAIL_HOST_USER='[e-mail]'

       EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD='private'

       DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL='[e-mail]'

DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL, ? , , , , . Django , DEFAULT.
