We have two distinct things here:
- smtp configuration for ovirt-ha-agent
- smtp configuration for ovirt-engine-notifier

The first one is going to report just about the local status of the engine
VM monitored by ovirt-ha-agent on the different involved hosts; its
configuration is saved on the hosted-engine storage domain and you can edit
it with 'hosted-engine --set-shared-config ...'.
ovirt-engine-notifier instead could cover different events on different
entities but it relies on a working engine that's why we have a distinct
mechanism just to cover the status of the engine VM.
