For sending out password reminder emails, the [[plugins/passwordauth]] plugin currently uses
the Mail::Sendmail module.
This module, however, has the limitation that it can only talk SMPT,
but can't use the standard Unix sendmail (command-line) interface.
I don't want to have an MTA with a SMTPd running on my web server system.
Would it be possible to switch to using one of the existing Perl modules that support
the sendmail interface?
From doing a quick search, these might be some candidates:
None of them are packaged for Debian so far, but that should be doable easily, as far as I know.
ikiwiki might perhaps even try to use all of them in turn until it finds a working one.
I'd offer to work on a patch for the [[plugins/passwordauth]] plugin and other places
in the ikiwiki source code, where emailing is done.
