[PATCH] localhost as the default smtp server

[Aurelien Jacobs]

Hi,

I've just spent some time trying to configure the mail notify extension.
It's now working, but it took me some time to discover that the default
smtp server is _not_ localhost, and how to configure the smtp server.

I think it would be less confusing to set localhost as the default
smtp server. That's the purpose of the attached patch.

And for those who wonder how to setup your smtp server, you can add those
lines in your hgrc:
[smtp]
host = localhost
port = 25
