service name in smtp_url

[Jukka Salmi <j+mutt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I just noticed that Mutt seems not to accept service names (as opposed
to numbers) in smtp_url.  Thus something like

        set smtp_url="smtp://example.org:submission/"

doesn't work (and uses the default port instead), but

        set smtp_url="smtp://example.org:587/"

does.  Glancing at the code I think that's because ciss_parse_userhost()
(in url.c) does a `ciss->port = atoi (p)' no matter what `p' points to.

If this is done deliberately I think it should be documented.  Or is it
and I missed it?


Regards, Jukka
