Dev Testing Instructions
If on a dev (local host) environment (i.e. not staging or production), make sure you are using the UNL VPN. This is necessary for emails to send properly. NOTE: several IP addresses have been blocked from sending emails. It is entirely likely that none of the VPN servers will be able to send email.
