Problem is though, Evolution appears to only have three (3) options
(mechanism types) for the smtp-auth process (Mail Sending Options for the
accounts):
PASSWORD (returns the error "PLAIN" not supported)
DIGEST-MD5
CRAM-MD5
?
This is why i'm getting confused...there is no option for "LOGIN" on the
mechanism types (Send Mail options applet/widget).
There's a gotta be a hack somewhere!
