We should give some option to use their SMTP for emails part along with Resend, as many people already have their SMTP preferences.

Research direction
Examine the current email sending logic in the repository, likely in a service file or utility. Look for an abstraction layer for email providers; if it only supports Resend via an API, plan to add SMTP support (e.g., using nodemailer). Check the project configuration files for any existing env vars for SMTP. Review the two comments on the issue for any additional context or suggestions from maintainers or other contributors.
