The [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/django-
admin/#sendtestemail sendtestemail] management command always uses the
default `MAILERS` configuration. There's currently no way to test other
configurations with it.
We should add an optional `--using ALIAS` argument to `sendtestemail` to
specify the `MAILERS` configuration:
{{{#!shell
./manage.py sendtestemail --using notifications [email protected]
./manage.py sendtestemail --managers --using internal
}}}
If `--using` is not provided, `sendtestemail` would use the default
`MAILERS` configuration.
[This was recommended as early follow-on work
[https://github.com/medmunds/deps/blob/a8c63074293e34cbf71fc185fccfae7cdf2a0b15/accepted/0018-mailers.md
#future-sendtestemail-using-option in DEP 0018]. I'm opening it as
"Cleanup" because it feels like a missing piece of #35514 rather than a
new feature. Or we may want to treat it as a "Bug" so it gets backported
to 6.1 (if it makes it in before beta).]
