Another feature request (sorry wishy)

I would like to be able to configure email settings on the admin panel (smtp server, port, (default to localhost:25)

and then a nice method in the module API that would allow me to send an email

i.e:  $this->sendEmail('the_destination_address@somewhere.com','the_subject',$the_message_body,$the_array_of_attchments,
                                                                          $the_cc_array, $the_bcc_array);

Then I could add various email notification things to the various modules I'm writing (particularly the uploads, etc) modules.

What does everybody else think?

Good idea.  Going to put this on the list...

Is there a place where we can see that detailed list of features to be added and so on? The roadmap is a bit empty for the upcoming releases. Are you also planning to put the module wishes (on the wiki) in place for the upcoming releases?

Well, right now I keep my todo list either in the bug tracker or in the bot in our irc channel.  Time has been pretty limited lately, so any dev time I do get usually has to go to actual coding and none of the other "stuff" that comes with managing an application...

Not to mention that, but a lot of the ideas of where we are going to still rattling around in my head.  I have a list 10 miles long.  A most of them were going to hold off for a rewrite.  But I'm starting to reconsider that a bit and possibly just do them bit by bit (kind of like what i'm doing with this week's overhaul).
