Before Rails 7.0 was released, neither the Mail gem or Rails were providing a default timeout for SMTP, so there was a risk of processes being stuck while sending emails. That's no longer the case, though; we're using version 2.8.x of the Mail gem, which already provides a default timeout [2]. Since the default timeout provided by the Mail gem is the same as the default timeout provided by Rails 7.0, it doesn't matter whether we enable this option. We're enabling because it's easier to just use the default 7.0 configuration. [1] Issue 41244 in https://github.com/rails/rails [2] Pull request 1427 in https://github.com/mikel/mail
