'smtp_from' disregarded: wrong sender-email

[Crunk]

AnnouncerPlugin 0.12-p2.dev is sending mails to "undisclosed-recipients: ;"@<hostname>.com from an unspecified address: trac@localhost (probably via sendmail?), although a smtp is configured for AnnouncerPlugin:

There have been some changes to the way announcer gets configured. You now have the choice of SmtpEmailSender or SendmailEmailSender.

    email_sender = ExtensionOption('announcer', 'email_sender',
        IEmailSender, 'SmtpEmailSender',
        """Name of the component implementing `IEmailSender`.

        This component is used by the announcer system to send emails.
        Currently, `SmtpEmailSender` and `SendmailEmailSender` are provided.
        """)

smtp specific configuration is moved to the [smtp] section of the config. Here are the values we expect:

    server = Option('smtp', 'server', 'localhost',
        """SMTP server hostname to use for email notifications.""")

    timeout = IntOption('smtp', 'timeout', 10,
        """SMTP server connection timeout. (requires python-2.6)""")

    port = IntOption('smtp', 'port', 25,
        """SMTP server port to use for email notification.""")

    user = Option('smtp', 'user', '',
        """Username for SMTP server.""")

    password = Option('smtp', 'password', '',
        """Password for SMTP server.""")

    use_tls = BoolOption('smtp', 'use_tls', 'false',
        """Use SSL/TLS to send notifications over SMTP.""")

    use_ssl = BoolOption('smtp', 'use_ssl', 'false',
        """Use ssl for smtp connection.""")

    debuglevel = IntOption('smtp', 'debuglevel', 0,
        """Set to 1 for useful smtp debugging on stdout.""")

if you decide to go with sendmail, use the following:

    sendmail_path = Option('sendmail', 'sendmail_path', 'sendmail',
        """Path to the sendmail executable.

        The sendmail program must accept the `-i` and `-f` options.
        """)

[announcer] still gets the following, but names may have changed:

    enabled = BoolOption('announcer', 'email_enabled', 'true',
        """Enable email notification.""")

    email_from = Option('announcer', 'email_from', 'trac@localhost',
        """Sender address to use in notification emails.""")

    from_name = Option('announcer', 'email_from_name', '',
        """Sender name to use in notification emails.""")

    replyto = Option('announcer', 'email_replyto', 'trac@localhost',
        """Reply-To address to use in notification emails.""")

    mime_encoding = Option('announcer', 'mime_encoding', 'base64',
        """Specifies the MIME encoding scheme for emails.

        Valid options are 'base64' for Base64 encoding, 'qp' for
        Quoted-Printable, and 'none' for no encoding. Note that the no encoding
        means that non-ASCII characters in text are going to cause problems
        with notifications.
        """)

    use_public_cc = BoolOption('announcer', 'use_public_cc', 'false',
        """Recipients can see email addresses of other CC'ed recipients.

        If this option is disabled (the default), recipients are put on BCC
        """)

    # used in email decorators, but not here
    subject_prefix = Option('announcer', 'email_subject_prefix',
                                 '__default__',
        """Text to prepend to subject line of notification emails.

        If the setting is not defined, then the [$project_name] prefix.
        If no prefix is desired, then specifying an empty option
        will disable it.
        """)

    to = Option('announcer', 'email_to', 'undisclosed-recipients: ;',
        'Default To: field')

    use_threaded_delivery = BoolOption('announcer', 'use_threaded_delivery',
        'false',
        """Do message delivery in a separate thread.

        Enabling this will improve responsiveness for requests that end up
        with an announcement being sent over email. It requires building
        Python with threading support enabled-- which is usually the case.
        To test, start Python and type 'import threading' to see
        if it raises an error.
        """)

    default_email_format = Option('announcer', 'default_email_format',
        'text/plain',
        """The default mime type of the email notifications.

        This can be overridden on a per user basis through the announcer
        preferences panel.
        """)

I'll add it to the wiki.
