I think this was new in 6.2, but there is a structured content email  
form type that you can use in that.

Otherwise you can do what we're doing, which is to use the Java API  
to send emails, which employs the settings you've seen in opencms- 
system.xml.  We had to do things this way as I was pulling the email  
address out of our staff profile structured content.
