Public bug reported: The e-mail account is at mail.crosswire.org. This account no longer has an associated SMTP sending service. I use my googlemail account with an alias to send e-mails. I can get the account recognised but when the 'Danger' notice appears, there is no checkbox, and the 'Done' button is not accessible. I will attach screenshots showing the problem. I only discovered this before reporting the #1180302 and #1180302 bugs as I had tried a completely clean setup in case the problem was my own.
