I recently added a testsuite check to verify that it is possible to
send email to local users via SMTP, to make sure all machines on the
local network can get their emails delivered locally. This do not
work, and I suspect it should. The problem seem to be commit
0f3861139cf63159bcaf38e7d70098b851347225 by Andreas B. Mundt from
2010. I believe it made it required to have a Kerberos ticket to use
the SMTP interface, but am not sure.
This patch get my test working, but I am not sure I am testing the
correct thing, and if this change make sense. Anyone know?
