SELF-HOSTING said the relay had "one piece of outbound network code in it, the SMTP client for password reset mail". That was an overclaim, and this corrects it to a list with the setting that turns each one on.

Checked against flamenet-relay main rather than taken on trust. Every outbound HTTP client in Sources/:

file	destination	setting
Mailer.swift	SMTP	FN_SMTP_HOST
ErrorReporting.swift	error collector	FN_SENTRY_DSN
APNs.swift	Apple push	FN_APNS_KEY_P8, FN_APNS_KEY_ID, FN_APNS_TEAM_ID
Federation.swift	peer relays	FN_FEDERATION, FN_FEDERATION_KEY
RoutesDonate.swift	api.stripe.com	FN_DONATE_SECRET
AttachmentStore.swift	S3-compatible store	FN_S3_ENDPOINT

Plus the databases it is pointed at, Postgres and Redis. All eleven settings exist in relay main.

This also unpins a loose end: flamenet-relay has .e2e-ref set to 310c315, which is this branch's head and is not on main. Merging it puts the relay's pin back on a commit main contains.

SELF-HOSTING said the relay had "one piece of outbound network code in it, the SMTP client for password reset mail". That was an overclaim, and this corrects it to a list with the setting that turns each one on. Checked against `flamenet-relay` main rather than taken on trust. Every outbound HTTP client in `Sources/`: | file | destination | setting | |---|---|---| | `Mailer.swift` | SMTP | `FN_SMTP_HOST` | | `ErrorReporting.swift` | error collector | `FN_SENTRY_DSN` | | `APNs.swift` | Apple push | `FN_APNS_KEY_P8`, `FN_APNS_KEY_ID`, `FN_APNS_TEAM_ID` | | `Federation.swift` | peer relays | `FN_FEDERATION`, `FN_FEDERATION_KEY` | | `RoutesDonate.swift` | api.stripe.com | `FN_DONATE_SECRET` | | `AttachmentStore.swift` | S3-compatible store | `FN_S3_ENDPOINT` | Plus the databases it is pointed at, Postgres and Redis.

SELF-HOSTING: list every outbound connection the relay can open ... 310c315155

The page said SMTP was the relay's only outbound code. The relay also
dials Apple's push service, peer relays, Stripe, an S3 store and, from
the relay's feat/glitchtip-error-reporting branch, an error collector.
Each is now listed with the setting that turns it on, ending on what a
relay with all of them unset opens: nothing.
