[PATCH 0/1] [GSoC]smtp_auth_maybe: improve smtp authentication error handling logic

This patch enhances error handling in the smtp_auth_maybe() function by distinguishing between temporary errors and permanent authentication failures.

- For temporary errors (e.g., timeout, network issues, etc.), the function
logs a warning and returns 1, allowing retries.

- For permanent errors (e.g., invalid credentials), it returns 0.

Additionally, it separates handling for SASL and plain authentication to prevent rejecting valid credentials due to non-credential errors, improving robustness.
