Description

I've upgraded from redmine 1.0.3 to 1.2.0, and while doing that I decided to set the attachment directory to a path outside of the redmine path - thereby eleminating the need to move these files with every redmine update.

To do that I had to activate the use of configuration.yml, which was not needed before (stayed to the hardcoded defaults). After introducing configuration.yml I found that the email send function was broken.

That problem was caused by the fact that the email settings in configuration.yml seem to have precedence over the settings im email.yml, even while the desciption in the configuration.yml directive suggest a precedence of email.yml.

Versions (gem list --local)
fxruby (1.6.16 x86-mswin32-60)
i18n (0.4.2)
mysql (2.8.1 x86-mswin32)
rack (1.1.1, 1.0.1)
rails (2.3.11)
ruby-opengl (0.60.0 i386-mswin32)

and redmine 1.2.0

BTW, just use configuration.yml ?!

email.yml is deprecated. So if both email.yml and configuration.yml exist, IMHO that's expected behaviour.

I can't find the "description in the configuration.yml directive" you are referring to?

I've updated upgrade user guide to include upgrade from versions >= 1.2.0.

Please feel free to reopen the issue if needed.

This part is somwhat misleading under the aspect of upgrading a pre-1.2.0 installation that uses email.yml:

# default configuration options for all environments
default:
  # Outgoing emails configuration (see examples above)
  email_delivery:

The updated update user guide seems to be an acceptable solution.
