How to send an email from a non-gmail account using the app

Question

I have successfully sent an email using the Google App Engine. However, the only email address I can get is the gmail address, which I called the site administrator. I run the application in my own domain (purchased and supported using Google Apps). I would like to send an email from my domain. Here's the code (or something similar to it):

from google.appengine.api import mail sender = " [e-mail] " sender_i_want = " [e-mail] " mail.send_mail(sender=sender, to="Albert Johnson < [e-mail] >", subject="Your account has been approved", body=some_string_variable) 

And the error I get when I try to send it from my own domain is "InvalidSenderError: Unauthorized sender". I own a domain, I really allow my domain to be used for sending mail, I just need to know how to convince App Engine that this is true.

Answer 1

This is the limitation of the App Engine mailbox API :

The sender address can be either the email address of the registered administrator for the application, or the email address of the current user with a subscription (the user sending the request, sending the message).

If you have Google Apps running on this domain, you must have (or be able to create) @ thatdomain.com email addresses that you can register as the administrator of the App Engine application in question, let me send you the address Email from this address.
