What might really be nice is some sort of language that could

Is LDAP a reasonable choice for this?
At one point Cyrusoft Mulberry was pushing ACAP, but that doesn't seem to
have caught on. But it seems like every list I'm on is mentioning LDAP for
authentication for some service, so maybe email client settings can be
stored there. One then just configures the LDAP login info. One would need
to standardize an LDAP schema for this configuration, though.
