Who administers your corporate mail server? On a Linux system,
I have configured mutt with simply:
# From: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1946910
# Also make sure the packages gnutls-bin openssl libsasl2-2 # installed.
set smtp_url="smtps://[email protected]@SMTP.AIM.com:465/"
set smtp_pass="*******************"
set realname="Paul Gilmartin (π)"
set from="[email protected]"
Mutt is open-source, so you might copy (subject to GPL?) what it does.
Or start with:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMTPS
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6409
Some of those could be hard-coded in the interface; others extracted
from RACF. Synchronizing password changes might remain manual.
Might the user update his own smtp_pass with no special privilege?
