This behavior is more cleanly accomplished in middleware

We're working on a more general proposal to address this.

Ignore the above comment; the snippet has been changed to reflect that.

Howto use this middleware in your own project:

1. Download snippets 631 (this page) and 638.

2. Change the import line in the top of 631, so that 638 will be found, for example:

from myproject.middleware.638 import StandardExceptionMiddleware...

3. Add the middleware to myproject/settings.py:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = ( myproject.middleware.631.HTMLMailExceptionMiddleware ... )

Would it be possible to send the "debug_response.content" as an attachment in the mail, instead of as part of the message?
