Hmm, it seems you're right.

Nevertheless, I don't know if it is necessary to alter the following
documentation for that:

The Kallithea configuration file has several e-mail related settings. When
these contain correct values, Kallithea will send e-mail in the situations
described below. If the e-mail configuration is not correct so that e-mails
cannot be sent, all mails will show up in the log output.


Given that:
- all mails show up in the log output,
- the type of mails is clarified below as 'application' and 'error' mails
- error mails are described with: 'an e-mail with exception details'

is there something missing?
Perhaps the 'all mails' can be replaced with 'both application and
error mails' ?

Feel free to make any adjustment when applying these changes. If you
prefer me to send a v3, let me know...

/Thomas
