So that problem was a red-herring caused by me fiddling with the
firewall. Unfortunately it's still not working; now I'm getting the
following two things in the console:
MailTransport::Transport::updatePasswordState: Transport with this ID
not managed by transport manager.
MailTransport::Transport::updatePasswordState: Tried to update password
state of non-cloned transport.

but googling for that just takes me to the source code which doesn't
help much.
