Growl fields are OK. E-mail server still does not save.

My fault. Dropped the 's' in smtp :(

Fields save, though a test fails, probably something else in the backend. The config fields appear to be the same though. I'll open another ticket for that, may not be GUI related but in PHP libraries or elsewhere.

Whoops, forgot to reopen this -- #1 is still an issue. #2 is resolved.

The only way I can think of to prevent autofill is to change the name of the field to something random~is, then change it back again on submit. Please see if this fixes the issue for you.

Sadly it appears as though browsers have decided they know better than page designers what forms need auto-fill. FF and Chrome both ignore autocomplete=off now for whatever the browser believes are username and password fields. The odd thing is that on 2.2.x this form does not get auto-filled, but some other places do (e.g. proxy settings on the System > Advanced, Miscellaneous tab). Must be something in how bootstrap formats the fields that makes the browser believe it's a login form.

Closing this out for now.

There doesn't seem to be a reliable cross-platform way to stop browsers from filling in what they believe are username and password fields. May revisit in the future.
