Email sending server

For security reasons, when it comes to email user and password, we do not rely on configure in website/website/settings.py,

but use a lazy-load mechanism:

If no valid configure about email auth is given, the server will only raise OSError when enroll.verify_code.send_code is called.

And where to put configure about email auth, like user and password?

The answer is website/enroll/_email_conf.py, which is already put in .gitignore

For example, assuming your email user and password is User and Pwd, then you can type the following to website/enroll/_email_conf.py:

EMAIL_HOST_USER = r"User"
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = r"Pwd"

And you won't need to worry about these infomation being leak, as this file will be ignored by git and you can freely execuate command like git add ..

If you wanna use configure defined at website/website/settings.py, just delete website/enroll/_email_conf.py and here you go.
