[geeklog-devtalk] Smtp mail in Forums

[Ed]

Hi, I'll not post again, but thought this was too technical for other lists.

Since Blaine is posting about 1.39rc1 in here, I would ask you all this
regarding Forums:

Since GL now allows $_CONF['mail_settings'] to be authenticated SMTP, and
since forums are basically an integral part of most people's GL installs,
would it not make sense to refer to the $_CONF['mail_settings']  from within
forums for the forum notifications?

And perhaps all plugins that involve email (Manual digest, Classifieds,
etc.) could do the same. Which means that something in the plugin
documentation should be updated to make reference to such a capability in /
reference to config.php.
