Description

Requirement

Users don't know what is the format of the Mail server configuration. We should provide some examples, hints or links to the documentation. Since we've identified the most common setups, we could provide these configurations in a dropdown / select.

Proposal

Documentation

Provide a link to the generic documentation in order to see examples with different possible values

Profiles

Provide values for predefined profiles that are used often, like Gmail.

Status

Clearly state if the mail server is functional or not. Also provide a functionality to test the server.

Reset

The profiles offer default values but these can be overwritten by the user with his own values (user, pass). The reset button resets the values to the initial ones.
