From
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18492681/what-is-the-smtp-noop-command-used-for

"The simplest of these commands is NOOP, useful mostly in testing to

response, with no change in state..."

Have you tried setting up another account on Claws, to access the

Something like allowing 'less secure' apps or similar ??
