Comment (by Carlton Gibson):
So
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/13305#pullrequestreview-625047316
conclusion on the PR] is that we should add the option to accept the
parameters for an SSLContext on EmailBackend but **not** add them as
settings. (The default is to use the system CA certs which is what most
people want/need.)
We will then recommend subclassing in the docs for more control.
At the same time we should deprecate EMAIL_SSL_CERTFILE and
EMAIL_SSL_KEYFILE for the same reasons.
