I know enough to run a mail server, but not enough to emulate the logic in

From swap setup to bumping up defaults if the host I’m installing on is beefy enough.

I wish I knew enough logic to add this following pseudo-code here:

> <https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/blob/master/discourse-setup#L287-L288>

If port = `25` then print “Enter none to disable SMTP Authentication, only choose this if you what you are doing”

This would allow me to have a uniform setup, and know that it wasn’t me when I run in to [other issues during setup](https://meta.discourse.org/t/jquery-error-prevents-email-from-being-sent-on-first-run/59902).

\*(Note that the forum I’m trying to set up today is using sparkpost/port 587/smtp\_injection/password), the topic at hand is about a different forum which is working now.)

Edited the second code area to reference `DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT`, which was my initial intent
