Description
The password for secure authentication may be sensitive, so it is best to not leave it lying around in a config file. This commit introduces the EMAIL_SMTP_PASS environment variable, which can be set to configure the SMTP password without writing it to the configuration file.
How to test?
Start a Pangolin server as normal, but use EMAIL_SMTP_PASS instead of the config file to set up the mail server.
