Re: [QGIS-Developer] QGIS Full Stack Web Developer Report

Hi Lova,
if I understand it right, using smtp.gmail.com *will* send all mails via Google. I don't know which SMTP host is currently used. 


Looking at the MX records of qgis.org it seems like Google is used 
already anyways so I might be barking up an old and rotten tree. :(



It really should not be any of Google's business when people communicate 
with qgis.org addresses.


Thank you!

Cheers, Hannes

I apologise for that. Indeed, we propose using smtp.gmail.com as 
EMAIL_HOST instead of smtp to fix the email-sending feature since it 
sometimes goes into the spam folder.



However, I think this won’t change the account type because we use the 
same as the current email and keep the part `@qgis.org` unless I’m 
mistaken. But maybe my PR’s name doesn’t reflect that. For now, I will 
update the PR and convert it to a draft.

I’m not sure of the answer to this, sorry.


Dear @Tim Sutton <mailto:t...@kartoza.com>, could you please advise me 
on that?Thank you.


Best regards,

Lova

Hey Lova,

thanks for all your great work!

This caught my eye:


> Use Gmail as the email provider 
<https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Django/pull/356>



Does this mean that Gmail will be involved in all those mails? I would 
be strongly against proactively exposing any data to such a company if 
not absolutely necessary.


Can't a OSGeo mail account be used instead?


It's bad enough that so much mail is already centralized and thus 
available to a single party/company but as long as a user is not 
willingly using Gmail themselves already, it would be great if Google 
(or any other similar third party) was not involved in such mails.


Cheers, Hannes
