[keycloak-dev] bundle an SMTP server?

[Bill Burke]

I disagree.  Users aren't going to download Keycloak and immediately use 
it in production.  Autogenerated self-signed SSL certs, an SMTP server, 
and a preconfigured DB all make sense as then the user can immediately 
use keycloak in development and configure certs, db, etc. later when 
they want to run it in production.

The less things a developer has to do to testdrive keycloak the better. 
  Too bad we can't offer preconfigured social provider.  Then again, I 
guess we could, and hope google, et. al. doesn't shut it down.
