Ohhhh, I'm an idiot. You're saying we can't draw up the list of
collections for you to choose from until we've had a chance to ping
the server with your user name password. So yes, the wizard does make
the most sense. I will come back with more mockups.
Thanks Brian.

Perhaps this should be moved to a wizard type dialog where the
information can be added
in stages.
Page One:
Enter username and account - clicking next will retrieve the
collections for the account. With this
type of
workflow the Test button should remain so the user can
try the
account before hitting next.
Page Two:
Select the collection to use to send mail to.
Page Three:
Done page with settings to confirm. This page would have a
cancel, go back, and done.
Done = save the settings and activate Chandler menus in the UI
and Toolbar.
I'm not sure we need to do all that given that there are only 3
fields to fill out. I think if we end up needing to add more steps
we should definitely keep that in mind.
For example, we could provide options for how much functionality
people want to add to the UI:
- Toolbar button?
- Column in the list?
- Stamping buttons?
etc...
