Thanks for the suggestion, will try and post feedback.

But one thing I did never understand about STARTTLS (which is used as setting "Normal (TLS)") is when it connects normally and only after connection established switches to TLS how do I know that I have a secured connection and not a normal one?

But if it connects normally this means that my username and password goes without encryption, so how does this help me if afterwards the connection gets encrypted, knowing that somebody sniffing the network would get my credentials. This in addition to what you said.
