Description Allen Winter 2025-01-10 14:09:39 UTC

I go to modify my smtp setup in the sending configuration
The password field is filled in with blobs.  I'd like to be able to see what password I used rather than hunting down my kwallet settings.  The "eyeball" is missing

note that that the receiving configuration does have an eyeball on the password field

Comment 1 Allen Winter 2025-01-10 14:38:37 UTC

possibly related:  when I RMB in the password field to paste in my password string, the context menu does not appear directly over my mouse location.  instead is appears (probably unparented) all the way to the left of the screen

In the smtpconfigwidget, allow revealing the password after loading

In the SMTP configuration wigdget, enable password reveal after
the password is loaded from the transport.

It's nice to be able to see your passwords even after they've
been stored.
