Description

Hello Everyone,

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

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing Resend email integration code in the repository to understand the current email sending flow, then add an optional SMTP provider as an alternative using a library like nodemailer, ensuring configuration via environment variables and fallback logic.
