0 - No auth
1 - Login (commonly used, but obsoleted by Plain)
2 - Plain (commonly used)
3 - CRAM-MD5
Unfortunately most common issue with SMTP seems to be restrictions to the connection done by the ISPs, i.e if you are not in their network it won't work.
Yes thats really crap with SMTP but.... I am home when testing this so it should work, works on N9(account says "normal password" dunno if thats means 1 or 2) and in kmail option is 2 - Plain.

I will check using ag-tool now...

EDIT:

okey finally it works deleted account and set it to 2
and changed emailaddress field manually using:

Code:
ag-tool update-service YOURACCOUNTID email int:smtp/authentication=2
ag-tool update-service YOURACCOUNTID email string:emailaddress=YOUREMAIL
where ag-tool list-accounts lists the ACCOUNTID:s
