i got an impression from the docs that this shouldn't influence root and
postman mail...

yes, the mail is sent correctly, i was able to get it from the server i
sent it to...

the problem is that i don't know whether TLS is enabled or not. since my
computer and the smarthost are on the same network, the administrator of
the mailserver doesn't require us to use TLS, however i'd like to use it
anyway...
