Hey @thgh — makes sense. We will replicate and address accordingly. Thank you!

As of right now, if email is not configured, Payload will use ethereal.email (mock email) by default. This is expected behavior as of right now.

We're open to ideas on how to make this more evident to the user in the future. Transferring to a Discussion.
