Yep, that worked. Thanks!

Good to know, thanks. Quick follow-up -- documentation says that .netrc should
work, but I've found that even though I have the following entries in
~/.netrc, I still get prompted for credentials:
machine imap.migadu.com
login konstantin.ryabit...@linux.dev
password [...]
The credential helper works after the initial "lei up" but I'm curious why
.netrc isn't happy. Not a huge deal, seeing as that requires storing passwords
in plaintext.
