Bug Description

Currently it appears that editing the IMAP and SMTP settings for an email account is impossible to do via the 'Settings' menu => 'Accounts' dialogue.

Curious to know why this is and if it would be difficult to change.

This is quite an annoying issue. I've previously deleted and then re-added my account just to edit the smtp server. Currently it's particularly frustrating because there seems to be another bug that changes my smtp server to a wrong value every couple of days (perhaps after updating)?

I've tried editing geary.ini in $HOME/.local/share/pantheon-mail/<account> but those changes seem to have no effect and are overwritten once I start mail again.
