Global Settings - Mail Settings - SMTP Authentication

[richbothe]

System info below!

I'm trying to configure global mail settings to use SMTP, however under "SMTP authentication is required" the username and password fields are disabled even though mailer is set to SMTP and authentication required is set to yes.

Why would those fields be disabled?

Some jQuery (javascript) is used to enable/disable those fields based on the choice in the Mailer field.

I'd check the browser's console for javascript errors.

No console errors, but I switched it back to "mail" saved it, then back to SMTP and it worked.
