==========
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.
