Description
I read the ticket #1541 and it was closed. But Nick Lane sayd about his function 'render_to_mail', that I think very util to be added to shortcuts package.
I created the patch attached to this ticket for this fix. I did'nt send a test case because I not found where put one.

Not worth it. This is a large duplication of all the parameters for send_mail, for a start. We already have the render_to_string() shortcut and you can use that to pass the body text to send_mail(). This shortcut wouldn't shorten any code significantly from what you can already do.

Personally, I think this would be useful. Worth re–opening? By mtredinnick’s argument, render_to_response shouldn’t exist.

No, it shouldn't be reopened.
If you disagree with a decision made by a core developer, don't just reopen the ticket; post to Django-developers and make your case. However, put me down as another -1.
