I was wondering if we could find a way to either have Gazest use the local sendmail binary or do smtp_auth. I have ssmtp on my system to avoid running another daemon. Thus I don't have anything listening on localhost. My mail relay requires smtp_auth, which ssmtp does if you use the sendmail binary. Is this possible?

There are two parts of gazest that sends emails: you get a backtrace by mail if there is a critical error and you get a mail to confirm the creation of a new account. For the backtraces, I have no idea how you'd tell Paste to use ssmtp.

For the account creation mails, yeah it would be quite easy to either call sendmail or to use ssmtp. You could add a new param in the .ini and test it's value in gazest.lib.helpers.render_mail(). I don't have a ssmtp box handy so this is not something that I would code myself but I will merge any clean patch.
