It seem to confuse Thunderbird according to dllud which found a way to bypass the SMTP requirements.

We might not have to do this now since David's workaround worked for me. https://redmine.replicant.us/issues/2032#note-10

Should we close this ticket?

No.

We should still ask for port 993. That's the default port for IMAP with SSL/TLS. Using it will make configuration easier on several email clients. For instance, the Thunderbird workaround has a few extra steps in it just to handle the fact that Thunderbird is defaulting to port 993 when we set SSL/TLS method.
