This will allow for things like password recovery and account verification. If the Dashboard can send emails through a configured relay then it should pass through spam filters pretty easily.

Do you want the metaverse-server to receive or generate emails? What is the scenario you're thinking for password recovery, for instance? Could be user goes to Dashboard, enters account name, and says "forgot password". Dashboard does API request to metaverse-server who sends an encoded link to the account's registered email address. Resolving that encoded link, resets the user's password. Is that the sort of think you're thinking?

Pretty much, the metaverse server needs to send an email through the relay so it won't get thrown instantly into spam. Account recovery, account verification, and any other services can be served through email.

This has been solved I believe.
