           Summary: kmail wizard configuration : authentication error
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.12.1
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jarillon at abul.org


Version:           1.12.1 (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

On a completely fresh install of Mandriva 2010.0 beta, the first start of kmail
call a wizard to help to configurate kmail.
It works very well except when the user wants to send a mail. A SMTP error
message is issued:
SMTP error: 5.5.1 Error: authentication not enabled ยป

It is necessary to go in 
-> Configuration -> Accounts -> Send -> Click -> Modify -> Advanced 
to unselect the checkbox "Server needs an authentication"

This is not obvious for a beginner and a lot of people cannot deal with this.
Please, unselect this by default.
