[Building Sakai] smtpFrom at org.sakaiproject.email.api.EmailService property

[Miguel Carro Pellicer]

Hi subscribers,

I want to ask something about the 
"smtpFrom at org.sakaiproject.email.api.EmailService" property, this is a 
property to set the "from" address of outgoing emails.

I noticed a lot of Sakai logic does not use this property, uses code like:

String userEmail = "no-reply@" + ServerConfigurationService.getServerName();

or

return "From: " + "\"" + 
m_serverConfigurationService.getString("ui.service", "Sakai") + 
"\"<no-reply@"+ m_serverConfigurationService.getServerName() + ">";

This works fine when you have the no-reply at XXX account in your 
institution, but doesn't work properly when you have another address.

IMHO Sakai should use the smtpFrom property and use this logic as a 
fallback, i created some Jiras but i don't know if the community thinks 
the same.

https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-29204
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-29143
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-29209

... and many many tools like Samigo, Assessments, Announcements... if i 
create the no-reply at XXXX account at my institution i will finish earlier :D

If my approach is correct i can continue creating Jiras, testing and 
creating pull requests about this.

Thanks in advance, Miguel
