    Description

      Following inputs came to me from Nicolas Wyss from MiroNet:

       

      The labels of the radio buttons in the "Security" section of the mail module are somewhat confusing.

      SMTP (no encryption)
      SMTP over SLL (SMTPS, SSL v3)
      SMTP over TLS (extend SMTP, TLS 1.0)

      The following labels would make more sense:

      Example.:

      Connection Security:

      no encryption
      use SSL/TLS
      use STARTTLS

      The following SMTP port/encryption combinations are common:

      Port 25 - no encryption or STARTTLS
      Port 465 - SSL/TLS
      Port 587 - STARTTLS <--- recommended variant
