[repost] Possible to achieve SMTP email connection? (ProtonMail)

What are you trying to achieve?

Hi! Is there any workaround that will allow me to add an SMTP email connection instead of IMAP only? I use ProtonMail, which only supports SMTP integrations.

To clarify:
I have SMTP variables from my email provider. I’m wondering if it’s possible to create this kind of connection in Make, because I don’t currently see where/how it’s possible. (I only see an IMAP option.)

Thanks for any help!

Steps taken so far

I did attempt adding the SMTP server/port/username/password under the IMAP settings [connection type: Others (IMAP)] just to see if it might work, but ended up with an error.

I also have contacted Proton to confirm there’s nothing further that can be done on their side. Since there is technically no error occurring, they weren’t able to help. I realize that there is no error technically on Make’s side either… I’m just hoping there’s a missed opportunity somewhere that I’m overlooking.
