PBS 3.2-2 I am trying to setup PBS to send notification emails to an SMTP server that does not need authentication to local email addresses.

Here is what I set up:

First thing I noticed is that even though I made a change, the OK button is greyed out. If I add a comment, the OK button is now active. now I press OK.

If I edit what I just saved, I get this:

Authenticate is now checked and it's looking for a Username.

Unexpected result.
 
To add to this, since I have it set up like this as well:
It does properly save it as not requiring authentication, meaning that it does work (as long as the other options are correct). You just will have to un-check the box every time you make a change to that SMTP (but once set up, how often would you be changing that to be honest)

I'm guessing that the Authenticate checkbox is just not (correctly) checking the current status in the settings, or something along those lines.
