           Summary: Wish: smtp/imap/pop resources should have a "Test
                    Settings" feature
           Product: KMail 2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: config dialog
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: unnamedrambler at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

Advanced auto detection and input validation would be very useful in the
smtp/imap/pop config dialogs.

Ideally a user should just have to put in their user, pass, and server. Then
click "Test Settings" which will:
1) perform auto detection of advanced (port, encryption, authentication)
settings IF not manually set by the suer
2) do a test login with the user's credentials
3) Report back if everything went well or if not

Usability++

Reproducible: Didn't try
