Overview
|
||
|
|
==========
|

This manual is primarily concerned with 3 "types" of email:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* emails sent by the underlying system
|
||
|
|
* emails sent via Python logging mechanism
|
||
|
|
* emails sent explicitly by a Poser/Rattail app
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first, "emails sent by the underlying system" refers primarily to emails
|
||
|
|
sent by the ``cron`` daemon. See :doc:`system` for more about those.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The second, "emails sent via Python logging mechanism" is covered in
|
||
|
|
:doc:`logging`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The third, "emails sent explicitly by a Poser/Rattail app" is the primary
|
||
|
|
motivation behind this section of the manual. In particular see the sections
|
||
|
|
about :doc:`config`, :doc:`templates` and :doc:`code`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally, if you're sending email to the public, it may be helpful to detect
|
||
|
|
bounces and e.g. flag an address as invalid if it triggers a bounce. See
|
||
|
|
:doc:`bounces` for more on that.
