The problem here is that the request has never been sent to the authority (presumably because it was created before outgoing email was correctly configured. In a live install of alaveteli, that would indicate a serious problem, so an error is raised. It could be resolved by deleting the request (presuming that it's test data), or by sending the message using OutgoingMessage.send_message from the console.
