It was calling super of another method. But as the base code (located in
base/ir_mail_server) is the same, the result is actually the same.

RATIONALE
As multi-company tolerant alias domains will soon replace the usage of
configuration parameters, having them in base then replaced by more advanced
models in mail would be complicated to handle and not useful. Move those
ICP to 'mail' so that all mail configuration is done in that module.
SPECIFICATIONS
Move config parameter used for alias domains configuration in 'mail' module.
Base should be as simple as possible and let mail deal with mail server
complexity.
Move 'mail.{bounce/catchall}.alias' used with 'mail.alias.domain' to make
bounce and catchall emails. Move 'mail.default.from' as it will be integrated
into alias domains in some form.
Note that 'mail.default.from_filter' stays as an ICP in base as it is a
more global default parameter. It is used as default value in 'connect' when
no mail_server is used and no from_filter can be retrieved.
Some tests in 'base' are either fixed, either moved directly into 'mail'.
We now differentiate base behavior (without ICP) from configurable behavior
(with ICP in mail).

Prepares Task-36879 (Mail: Support MultiCompany Aliases)
Part-of: odoo/odoo#130750
Prevent archiving in-use mail servers by displaying an error message that
lists where it is still used, allowing to easily identify what need to be
updated before being able to archive the mail server.
Additionally,
- prevent the use of archived server as a fall-safe
- when duplicating a mailing with an archived mail server, replace mail
server by the default one
Detailed explanation:
1. A check has been added that raise an exception when trying to connect to the
smtp server or send an email when the server is archived.
With that solution,
- testing the connection of an archived server displays an error telling that
an archived server cannot be used.
- if a mail is still sent with an archived server, mail are in error :
"Connection failed (outgoing mail server problem)"
This fail-safe ensures that no mail will be sent through an archived mail server
and that the user will get some feedback about it.
The same fail-safe for the incoming mail server has been added.
Notes:
- the connection will outlive the archiving of a mail server still allowing
to send email through the archived server until the connection is closed. But
connection are not kept for long so this shouldn't be a problem.
- it cannot be tested because the connect method return immediately in test
mode.
2. When a mail server is archived, an user error is raised if it is in-use.
The implementation relies on each module to override the method
"_active_usages_compute" in "ir_mail_server" to complete the list with
user-friendly message describing the active elements that could send mail
through the mail server. This has been implemented for:
- l10n_it_edi: server used to send e-invoice
- mail: optional server configured for template
- mass_mailing:
-- default mail server
-- active server configured for mailing
Mail server are referenced in other elements but are not active anymore, it is
just for temporary or history purpose. Those references doesn’t prevent the
archiving of the mail server:
- mail_message
- wizard survey_invite and compose_message
- res_config_settings
