The option to whitelist email domains is a great feature in Gitea. However, updating the whitelist requires changing the config and restarting gitea.

Ideally, the web admin could view and update the whitelist in either User Accounts, User Emails, or Configuration
AND through an API or endpoint.
This will probably also require changing the config setting from EMAIL_DOMAIN_WHITELIST to something like DEFAULT_EMAIL_DOMAIN_WHITELIST or INITIAL_EMAIL_DOMAIN_WHITELIST.

The specific use-case is a company hosting Gitea as a service & adding a new customer domain.

If this functionality already exists please let me know and I'll gladly close this ticket.

Closing as dupe as there is more generic ticket of updating config without restart
