 # TODO
-- [ ] Better E-Mail generation
-- [ ] Add the nix modules to the flake
-- [ ] Better Error handling
-  - [x] Find out which exceptions the SMTP module throws
-  - [x] also log to stderr if we send an error E-Mail
-  - [ ] move from MonadFail to MonadError from Control.Monad.Except
-- [ ] Split config into secrets and non secret config
-  - [ ] make the pad url configurable
