CRAM-MD5 · specifies to use CRAM-MD5 authentication supported by some types of extended SMTP servers without TLS (Transport Layer Security).

Version	Choose how client and SMTP server negotiates the version of TLS or SSL to be used in secure connection: Auto · automatically chooses the best possible TLS version for a particular SMTP server.
