Because not everyone has a autoconfig server at their disposal and you have to manage SRV-Records for any maildomain and stuff... The new policy engine via policies.json (or via GPO, or Apple MDM) on the other hand would be nice - and would work for everyone and you can lock the settings this way. So you could build one plugin that works for everyone enterprise and end users. Greetings Lukas Wringer
