   Hi everyone,
   
   I just wanted to bring this PR back into focus, as it seems to be stuck. The 
functionality here is (IMHO) quite important for users, and leaving it unmerged 
might risk discouraging adoption or pushing people away who rely on this 
feature.
   
   From what I can see, the change is essentially just forwarding a parameter 
to Jakarta Mail. That’s a very low-risk adjustment, and while of course 
thorough tests are always valuable, in this specific case the cost–benefit 
trade-off of waiting for a full test suite may not justify the delay. I'm not 
sure @sgoeschl is prepared to invest this kind of time, since he is no longer 
really active.
   
   Would it be possible to merge this with at least a minimal test that checks 
whether the parameter has been set (or even with a clear TODO for additional 
tests), so that the community can start benefiting from it? Alternatively, 
maybe a committer or contributor closer to the project could help add the 
tests, if they are considered strictly necessary.
   
   This way the feature doesn’t stay blocked, users get what they need, and the 
code quality expectations of the project can still be met in a collaborative 
way.
   
   What do you think?
