Description

The install page SMTP configuration requires an email address for "Sender Email"; however, many SMTP services such as Spark Post and Send Grid have APIs that require user names that are not email addresses. Configuring the user in app.ini works, but is not user-friendly.

This issue has been fixed in an accompanying pull request.
