Comment (by karsten):

 What about my suggestion above to "make the default settings file for
 development/testing and add comments what parts need to be changed for
 production?"  That means just a single settings.py file that works out of
 the box for testing and needs modification for production.  After all, the
 settings file needs to be modified anyway for the SECRET_KEY.

 With regard to emails, the file would contain something like (untested!):

 {{{
 # By default, send outgoing mail to a file for testing mode. Comment out
 to use local SMTP server for production mode.
 EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.filebased.EmailBackend'
 EMAIL_FILE_PATH = 'weather.mail'
 }}}
