Access to related data of newly created model instance using post_save signal handler

I need to send an e-mail when new instance of Entry model is created via admin panel. So in models.py I have:

class Entry(models.Model):   
    attachments = models.ManyToManyField(to=Attachment, blank=True)
    #some other fields
    #...
    sent = models.BooleanField(editable=False, default=False)

Then I'm registring post_save handler function:

def send_message(sender, instance, **kwargs):
    if not instance.sent:
        #sending an e-mail message containing details about related attachments
        #...
        instance.sent = True
        instance.save()

post_save.connect(send_message, sender=Entry)  

It works, but as I mentioned before, I also need to access related attachments to include their details in the message. Unfortunatelly instance.attachments.all() returns empty list inside send_message function even if attachments were actually added.

As I figured out, when the post_save signal is sent, related data of saved model isn't saved yet, so I can't get related attachments from that place.

Мне было интересно, однако, как Clojure подходит для графических баз данных, таких как Neo4j?
