+# NAME
+
+aerc-smtp - SMTP configuration for *aerc*(1)
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+aerc implements the SMTP protocol as specified by RFC 5321.
+
+# CONFIGURATION
+
+SMTP configuration may be done interactively with the :new-account command.
+
+In accounts.conf (see *aerc-config*(5)), the following SMTP-specific options are
+available:
+
+*outgoing*
+	smtp[s][+plain|+none]://username[:password]@hostname[:port]
+
+	Remember that all fields must be URL encoded. The "@" symbol, when URL
+	encoded, is *%40*.
+
+	The meaning of the scheme component is:
+
+	*smtp://*:
+		Unencrypted SMTP
+
+	*smtps://*:
+		SMTP with TLS/SSL
+
+	Additionally, you can specify an authentication mechansim like so:
+
+	*+none*:
+		No authentication is required to use this SMTP server. You may omit the
+		username and password in this case.
+
+	*+plain*:
+		Authenticate with a username and password using AUTH PLAIN. This is the
+		default behavior.
