Further notes:
(1) There was an old issue that this flag should have been called
--smtptls/smtptls for consistency. When making braking changes, perhaps
this suggestion should be implemented?
(2) Auto-enabling SMTP+TLS on port 465 and SMTP+STARTTLS on port 587
would enhance usability.
Many of the changes I have suggested break backwards compatibility with
existing .reportbugrc and scripts.
Kind regards,
