To configure the mailman-web container to send emails, add this to your
`settings_local.py`:
Mailman web is already configured to send emails through `$SMTP_HOST` as the
MTA's address. If you want to modify it, you can set the value in under
docker-compose.yaml for mailman-web container. By default, `SMTP_HOST` points
to the gateway of the web container, which is the host itself.
```
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.example.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 25
```
Alternatively, you can use the environment variables `SMTP_HOST` (defaults to
the container's gateway), `SMTP_PORT` (defaults to `25`), `SMTP_HOST_USER` (defaults to
an empty string), `SMTP_HOST_PASSWORD` (defaults to an empty string) and
`SMTP_USE_TLS` (defaults to `False`).
You can also use the environment variables `SMTP_HOST` (defaults to
the container's gateway and is set automatically), `SMTP_PORT` (defaults to `25`),
`SMTP_HOST_USER` (defaults to an empty string), `SMTP_HOST_PASSWORD` (defaults
to an empty string) and `SMTP_USE_TLS` (defaults to `False`).
This is required in addition to the [Setup your MTA](#setting-up-your-mta)
section below, which covers email setup for Mailman Core.

The postfix configuration that is generated looks like this:
```
[mta]
incoming: mailman.mta.postfix.LMTP
outgoing: mailman.mta.deliver.deliver
lmtp_host: $MM_HOSTNAME
lmtp_port: 8024
smtp_host: $SMTP_HOST
smtp_port: $SMTP_PORT
configuration: /etc/postfix-mailman.cfg
```
So, if you need to update the values, you can set `SMTP_HOST`, `SMTP_PORT`,
`MM_HOSTNAME` environment variables in `mailman-core` container.
Please verify the output for `[mta]` section to ensure that it points to
the right `smtp_host` (address to reach postfix from mailman-core container)
and `lmtp_host` (address to reach mailman-core container from postfix).
