 this be an issue? If not, what happens when you click on the "Get
 Messages" button? Is there some error or nothing happens?

 a socket connection is never successfully made - nor does it appear to be
 attempted (at the socket level). Though, as lunokhod reported, sending
 mail is successful.  With that said, this ticket appears to not be
 specific to I2P (e.g., app-agnostic; same results with ssh, etc.).

 related to #10684 or #16935? If not, perhaps a new ticket is in order.

 Let's revisit this issue. I know very little about I2P, so help me in
 reproducing this. What I2P mail service should I test this with?
