Support other test mail services in testsuite
Today, the test suite is hard-coded to mailhog as test mail service due to the API usage. As mailhog is poorly maintained and for a while was completely unmaintained, some CI pipelines/demo deployments have switched to other solutions like inbucket.
Would it be possible to use pop3 to communicate with the mail service instead of an API? This way it would be more generic and easier to replace the used test mail service. As we currently only support unauthenticated requests to the mailhog API, I would keep it simple for now and only support unauthenticated pop3 as well.
QA people - please first investigate a bit to see if this will be "moderately easy", and then we can discuss what is the way forward for implementing.
