Error connection refused while registering user in django registration

I followed this post How to disable email activation in django-registration app? and made changes to my django-registration code . So even though user is getting registered once I click on submit button , it still gives me an error page saying socket error . That means it is still trying to send the mail , though I h开发者_运维问答ave set it to false . How to get rid of this ?

I'm guessing this is in development? rather then turning email off you could try setting the email backend to dummy or file in your settings.py while in debug.

if DEBUG:
    EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.dummy.EmailBackend'
