Research direction
No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the failed mail-server connection in Mail 4.0.3 on Nextcloud 30.0.2 and trace the resulting Nextcloud log entry; done means the failure remains visible to the user while no irrelevant server-log error is emitted.
