who sends the email is totally unrelated to who the user is .... in fact, 
it's a "service" account that serves the only purpose of being an approved 
sender on the mail relay (a good rule of thumb, it shouldn't be backed by 
an inbox).
If you disclose your app to others, feel free to put that in a variable and 
say explicitely in the docs what it's needed to be set to have the 
application working when deployed elsewhere.
