Need way of specifying email addresses in multiple places

Open adhodgson1 opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

Hi,

After using these images for just over a week one issue I am noticing is how many places there are email addresses that need changing in the various config files.

Examples include the settings.py for the web modules, and various email addresses which are changed in mailman.cfg.

I can see attempts to fix this in the various scripts, and in the main this works well, but there are some changes that should really be made on production setups, for example changing the email address that Mailman sends out notification messages such as bounce notifications.

My question is what is the best way of exposing these addresses as configuration items, do most people run with a separate settings.py and mailman-extra.cfg file to configure what they need and that is the best route for this, which is what I have done, or should we try and expose more settings as environment variables?
