Hi Felix,

I did just succeed to self send a mail with Thunderbird.

Some tips:
 - manual config, I used the SSL ports directly on the container (docker
inspect)
 - The username shall be the full email address
 - Be sure to select the right outgoing servers

I would like to thank you for pointing out that this "demo" is not that
easy to set up, and that we would benefit from a little tutorial with
some TB screen capture to ease the demo as much as possible.

Regards,

Benoit
