-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Email settings for the SMTP backend are currently configured using 6
different variables. As there will be more and more to configure in the
future (see #20743) it might be an idea to move these settings into a
dictionary, similar to the way `DATABASES` or `CACHES` are configured.
An initial patch can be found here:

Things to note:
Backwards compatibility is a large concern here, as previously detected in
#21051. One way to introduce these setting without breaking user-space
code that directly accesses the `EMAIL_*` settings would be to have lazy
settings within `global_settings.py`.
