Unable to configure SMTP authentication/ security details

[Samineru]

I am unable to configure the security options of an email account, the program assumes it is able to infer this information from the port. This is not always true.

I apologize if this does not count as a security vulnerability, but it seemed appropriate.

This also includes the 'username' field. Some E-Mail providers , such as t-online.de, need a full email-adress (including the '@t-online.de' at the end) to access the mail-server.

I agree with the bug. I wasn't able to connect to my email account hosted with one.com, since they require some specific settings Postler does not allow us to configure (IMAP ports are not everywhere the same).

With default config for my email account it stalls for few seconds, then accepts new setting but freezes when trying to fetch the messages. Unusable for me at this stage.

My SMTP server requires authentication (I find this is extremely common), but Postler has no visible way of configuring this. There should be a username and password below the SMTP server setting.

It really keeps me from using it (I can't send e-mails).

I don't think average joe will set up an authentication-less SMTP relay on his local computer to get around this. either.
