In order to enable email functionality in the application, we'll need to send email FROM a user and TO a user.
The FROM user:
We'll need an email server, a user name, and potentially a password. You'd get that information from your email administrator, they'd know if a password would be required. The email server can be POP, IMAP, or EXCHANGE.
We recommend that you use a dedicated account (like no-reply@yourdomain.com). If you use a current employee's account, you might eventually disable that account if the employee leaves the company and then the emails will stop functioning.
The TO user:
We'll be sending email TO this account, and we recommend that you use a GROUP. This group can then be set to include anyone that you want. The advantage to using a group would be that you can change the recipients as time goes by to reflect changes in personnel without having to contact the developer.

FROM email server/username/password, and TO email address
