multiwoven Local Deployment not working login

If I want to run the Multiwoven Docker container locally as a developer (for development), it still forces me to create an account. When I try to create an account, I get an error. I believe it's asking me for an SMTP server, but I don't see the logic in requiring that for a local development environment.

Example:

Hey @juniorverli, do you have the USER_EMAIL_VERIFICATION env var set to false? Also, can you show us the exact error you're getting from the browser console?

If I try to log in, it returns the result in the log but does not leave the login page.

@juniorverli can you join our slack and post this issue there? It'll be easier to communicate there.

As per the log, the USER_EMAIL_VERIFICATION is not reflecting. Could you check it from the Rails console with puts ENV["USER_EMAIL_VERIFICATION"] and share the result?
