So i did all the Firware Updates and everything looks really good but one thing just dosen't seems to Work.
just for not Showing any Names i wiped out some Information. But as you can see the configuration is correct. Provider, Server and Port is filled out correctly.
Now to my Problem: Everytime i fill out the From part with Overwatch@Example.com and press Sent Test and Apply it takes over the Adress from the User and lets the Password blank. Is that a bug or does it just change some Information?

In my opinion the password blanking is a bug. Netgear might view it as a security feature - but in many scenarios the blank password is actually applied - and that makes it a bug for me.
Arguably setting "from" differently from "user" should just be deprecated, since that increasingly triggers spam filters and in some cases outright email rejection.

We are aware of the issue with the blank password field, but it's not high on the priority list at the moment.
