Description

This is a re-hashing of the following ticket: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/13847

After many years of using Django, I still get these confused. Actually, I'm not even clear on where one is used over another. At the very least, it would be nice to have the entries in the ​settings documentation link to one another so that people aren't running around trying to figure out why the email sender isn't changing properly.
