Comment:

 This issue has been raised several times.

 It usually comes from the security manager of your server, which prevents
 the Apache process from connecting to a priviledged port (SMTP=25 < 1024).
 You need to tweak your server configuration so that Postfix can receive
 requests from the Apache server.

 You can try to send an email from Python using the Apache "user" (sudo -u
 www-data python ...) to cross check.

 Have a look at the similar ticket and the mailing list archive. You might
 want to search for "Fedora" which is a good candidate for such kind of
 troubles ;-)
