            Bug ID: 441193
           Summary: support auto configuration by SRV records only
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: misc
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: xenoterracide at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

I'd like to be able to have kmail autoconfigure email based on dns. I found
this answer on ServerFault regarding appropriate settings.
https://serverfault.com/a/172373/6852 there is also an _autodiscover endpoint,
but that requires a web server to be set up. In case it is supposed to work,
you can see my DNS here.



STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Settings
2. Add Account
3. Enter my.email at mydomain.com (in my case this is
caleb.cushing at people-meeter.com)
4. Next
5. Next
6. Generic Imap Server (I suspect this shouldn't even show)
7. Next


OBSERVED RESULT

incoming and outgoing server is just the root domain, e.g. people-meeter.com

EXPECTED RESULT

imappro.zoho.com and smtppro.zoho.com
