Currently if an SMTP smarthost supports auth mechanisms but does not enforce one to be used, messages will fail to be delivered if blank authentication details are configured.
Currently messages will fail with this misleading error message:
This is a red herring. It stems from always creating an authentication client even if authentication details are not configured - but the smarthost advertises one or more auth mechanisms.
This change bails out of creating the client if authentication details are blank.
