 ... this problem actually affects _all_ MailHost instances when upgrading
from Zope2.5.1 (or earlier) to 2.6.0, as in 2.5.1 the smtp-port has been
stored as a string, but is now stored as int in 2.6.0


 I guessed a little hint about this incompatibility in the release notes
would have been nice, but I can find nothing in this regard.
 There is a hint in the doc/CHANGES.txt, that the MailHost has been
improved with respect to sending a date header now, but the type
change is not mentioned there.

 Did I miss some place to look at, or should the release notes possibly
be improved with respect to this?
