Research direction

Start by reproducing the SMTP-AUTH error after upgrading from v0.4.0.1 with Ruby 3.3.0 and Rails 7.1.3.2. Trace how the SMTP user name is handled during authentication and identify the change that causes it to be missing. Done means the reported configuration no longer raises this error and the behavior is verified against the affected versions.
