Thanks for this write-up, Stephen.

Really!?! That is interesting, i added smtp-from (superceeding
smtp-hostname) to make this work on Microsoft, but it seems they
plugged it, as last week it did no longer work.

Why do you need this initial call? Ah, you directly log into IMAP
and use that as your base, hmhm, we really deal bad with that.
Call it from within the account?
Yes it is a problem, on-main-loop-tick happens hm when the main
loop ticks, which it never does when only sending one mail
message. on-compose-enter will get that thing. Do you think it
would be a good idea to run it once in that case, too? (For
simplicity etc.? Document it better?)

I will try this week. I _do_ have a GMail thing and a Microsoft
thing, but i do not know whether they are still valid. The GMail
thing is private though, it only allows access to the hundred
people i explicitily list, no?
I try to adjust the fetchmail python script to fit better with
s-nail, but OAuth is a mess.
