Could you provide more guidance on how to do this in Apple's Mail.app on macOS,
iOS, iPadOS?
Do we just edit our existing email account and add another SMTP server to the
list and hope that Mail.app knows how to select the right one depending on the
email address I select when I compose an email, or that it will fall back to
the second SMTP server if the first one doesn't want to deliver the mail?
Or do we need to create an entirely new email account for the macports.org
address, set that account to use that new SMTP server, and I don't know fill in
garbage values for the incoming mail server portion?
The Settings screen of your web app says to use "encryption: STARTTLS and
"authentication method: AUTH PLAIN" but Mail.app doesn't refer to such terms.
There is an "Automatically manage connection settings" checkbox. Should that be
sufficient? If not, what should we select?
