It is not appropriate to (ab)use OIDC authentication claims for user
information, there is a dedicated userinfo endpoint that should always
be used. If the information we want is in the token claims, great, but
the endpoint info should always be available too.
In 60239bd637 the assumption that init_oidc_client could be imported
from oidc_handler was introduced into admin_routes.py.
However, init_oidc_client was defined in __init__.py, leaving us with
the options of:
1. Importing from .
2. Moving the implementation to oidc_handler, and importing in
__init__.py
I've gone with option 2.

Fixes & Enhancements
* Resolved five critical Apprise notification issues:
• Ensured configuration reload during scheduled jobs
• Fixed warranty data fetching for Apprise-only users
• Refactored notification dispatch logic with dedicated helpers
• Corrected handler scoping via Flask app context
• Wrapped scheduler jobs with Flask app context to prevent context errors
→ Verified: Scheduled Apprise notifications now work reliably for "Apprise only" and "Both" channels.
* Added support for SMTP\_FROM\_ADDRESS environment variable, allowing sender address customization independent of SMTP username. (PR #115)
* Fixed duplicate scheduled notifications in multi-worker environments:
• Strengthened should\_run\_scheduler() logic
• Now guarantees exactly one scheduler instance across all Gunicorn modes.
* Fixed stale database connection handling in scheduled jobs:
• Fresh connection acquired each run, properly released via try/finally
• Eliminates "server closed the connection" errors.
* Definitive scheduler logic fix for all memory modes (ultra-light, optimized, performance):
• Single-worker runs scheduler if GUNICORN\_WORKER\_ID is unset
• Multi-worker: only worker 0 runs scheduler.
Impact
* Apprise and Email notifications are now stable, reliable, and production-ready
* No more duplicate or missed notifications across all memory modes
* Improved system efficiency and robustness
