Comment (by claudep):
I can understand your desire to unify all email settings. In summary and
if I understand it well, here are the two proposed designs:
a.
{{{
EMAIL_BACKEND = '...'
EMAIL_FILE_PATH = '...' # If file backend is chosen
SMTP_CONFIG = { # If smtp backend is chosen
'HOST': '...',
'PORT': ?,
'USER': '',
'PASSWORD': '',
'USE_TLS': ''
'USE_SSL': ''
}
}}}
b.
{{{
EMAIL = {
'BACKEND': '...'
'FILE_PATH = '...' # If file backend is chosen
# If smtp backend is chosen:
'HOST': '...',
'PORT': ?,
'USER': '',
'PASSWORD': '',
'USE_TLS': ''
'USE_SSL': ''
}
}}}
I'm still sticking with the first design (but not -1 on the second),
because I don't think we gain much in grouping all settings (and assuming
generally that less change is better).
The proposal in comment:6 seems overengineered in my opinion.
