It's close but the SMTP_AUTH stuff still doesn't seem right.  It only
offers "LOGIN" or "PLAIN".  I chose PLAIN but I couldn't send email
using my non-SMTP_AUTH email server.  I don't think any authorization
should be used at all as the default or at least there should be an
option not to use it and email-config shouldn't prompt for user name and
password in that case.
