    I checked that if I have to use mail server not allow open relay and need smtp authentication, I don’t have any interface to change those mail setting, and I have to modify the code. It seems to be not convenience for somebody like me who doesn’t familiarize with php coding.
    Will modx programmer consider to add smtp setting inside admin interface? Will it be a new feature like this in version 2.0?

          It would be nice to have a standard setting that could be used as a default setting by add-ons.

            Indeed! My hosting company just changed their mail server configuration to require SMTP authentication when sending through the server, so now I’m scrambling to modify all of the mailing scripts on the sites I have on my server tongue I’ve actually decided to modify the manager/includes/controls/class.phpmailer.php file instead of having to try to remember where all the mailer snippets are in all the sites, which will no doubt cause headaches when upgrading. So some sort of mail API using settings from the site configuration that snippets and modules and such could use would be extremely useful.
