Actually, that's not entirely accurate. The Yesod scaffolding tool
generates a site that uses mime-mail and sendmail, but there's nothing
inherent in yesod-auth requiring either. Additionally, mime-mail
includes a function to use the sendmail executable, but it can also be
used with other packages, such as Haskellnet. I think we should move
in the direction of making these integrations better. In fact, next
time I need to set up a project that sends email, I'll likely be doing
just that.

You could just copy the email module from yesod-auth and make the
modifications there. Or even better if you're so inclined: submit a
patch to make these features optional. If you are so inclined, feel
free to contact me for some guidance.
