Note getting new user email from a fresh install
Hello/Hi/Greetings,
I just installed on Dreamhost, and created a new user for uploading content (I prefer not to use an admin account for that).
However the new user email never arrives, and I cannot find where email sending is configured. Also, given that I found no relevant threads it seems like I'm the only person expereincing the problem?

Re: Note getting new user email from a fresh install
If you add a new user through the admin interface, no email needs to be sent. Anyway, for email configuration see include/config_default.inc.php email section, at least
$conf['smtp_host'] = '';
$conf['smtp_user'] = '';
$conf['smtp_password'] = '';
need to be set. Do not edit that file, instead add your values to local/config/config.inc.php or use the LocalFiles Editor plugin to do so.
