I can't remember for sure - it's literally years ago - but I am pretty
sure I did not *populate* it manually initially. However, I might have
edited it to separate entries (https vs. smtp) and I might have added
additional entries by c&p & editing.

I have replaced the one instance of \n\n used for separation with a
normal single line break between entries and how it works fine. Before
that I got the following output (that's obviously not very helpful if
you don't know the whole story :)
