So far that has been deliberate choice - see https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/howto/email-config.html. SMTP for the emails that are sent by Airflow have - traditinally been sent using configuration done by Deployment Manager in Airflow configuraiton and it's been a deliberate decision to spearate "platform" configuration from "DAG" configuration. Using user/password from Connection table has been added later as a way to make security credentials kept using FERNET-encrypted DB entry mechanism we already have, but there was no intention to use all the configuration there - but if you define a way how to handle backwards compatibility, and explain it in the docs including how to change existing confifuration to the new one and also make it in the way to avoid even more confusion, then i think it's quite ok to have it. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
