Before this patch, when doing an SMTP connectivity check, Odoo always checked if the current user with their current email address could connect.
That was inaccurate because:
1. If the `ir.mail_server` were configured with an email address as `from_filter`, that's going to be the address used to connect with the server always; never your user email.
2. If it were configured with a domain as `from_filter` and your user had an email from another domain, your outgoing emails are going to get wrapped into that domain (SRS-like). Again, the connectivity check wouldn't be imitating real world connections.
After the patch, both situations are taken into account when deciding the outgoing address that's going to be used for testing the connection. This will reduce false negatives when testing connectivity.
