Input SMTP auth without physical mailbox

Pandur2000

Pandur2000

Basic Pleskian
Cannot authenticate via SMTP for mail-users with mailbox OFF and forwarding ON.
It's not exactly an issue but highly odd behaviour.

- Add a mail user = mail address
- Set a password and a forward to: mail address in the process
- User cannot send mails
- Mailbox has to be activated for the user to be able to send mails with his address

Either adjust the mail setup page (it confuses people as they think their mail address doesn't work) or add a check box "can send mails through this server".
