LOGIN_PASSWORD_ONLY env variable for self hosting without mail
When self hosting, SMTP isn't supported yet. The default email based login doesn't work. Login by email is just a click away but it would be easier if that could just be made default.
This change makes it such that we can simply add
LOGIN_PASSWORD_ONLY=true
to the environment to switch the defaults around.
Just an idea, can we use SES url to determine if we should use OTP login method? If we don't have email service configured, then we should not have SES url and OTP is not possible.
@aonnikov yeah, that's a good idea. I thought about this too and it appears we don't currently have SES url in our front service config file. So we'd have to add SES_URL to the front only to check whether OTP is supported or not. Why I probably would't want to expose it right now is that with the upcoming changes in the account we may immediately have other OTP delivery methods connected to various social logins other than email (e.g. telegram) so it might become a little bit tricky then.
