[Bug 1181341] [NEW] Cannot set up e-mail account with provider with no SMTP

[Barry Drake]

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.
