Clarify consumption documentation to match the current Paperless behaviour.
The configuration does not have to be hardcoded in settings.py anymore, and instead happens in the config file. Also, we added that the emails are checked at startup [0]. [0] see commit 3153bbd6a8d674362eccb4d48b8458b33298f6a9

|
||||
|

1. Setup a new email account somewhere, or if you're feeling daring, create a
|
||||
folder in an existing email box and note the path to that folder.
|
||||
2. In ``settings.py`` set all of the appropriate values in ``MAIL_CONSUMPTION``.
|

2. In ``/etc/paperless.conf`` set all of the appropriate values in
|

``PATHS AND FOLDERS`` and ``SECURITY``.

|
||||
include that in every email you send.

whatever it finds.

|

4. Send yourself an email! Note that the subject is treated as the file name,
|
||||
so if you set the subject to ``Correspondent - Title - tag,tag,tag``, you'll
|
||||
get what you expect. Also, you must include the aforementioned secret
