📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR adds an authenticated endpoint to test custom mailbox credentials. It validates input, checks SMTP and IMAP connectivity without saving the account, and returns connection results or an error. ChangesMailbox connection testing
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This endpoint can let authenticated users induce connections to internal network targets and can tie up request workers when an IMAP host does not respond; its failure response also omits the required connection detail. Merge should be blocked until outbound targets are restricted, IMAP timeouts are bounded, and the error behavior is corrected. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

outbound mailbox connection policy before any connection is attempted: resolve
smtp_host and imap_host, reject non-public loopback, private, link-local,
reserved, or otherwise disallowed addresses, and restrict smtp_port and
imap_port to approved mailbox-provider profiles where supported. Add request
rate limiting for this endpoint using the existing project mechanism.
- Around line 521-528: Update the exception handling around
test_mailbox_connection in google_auth_views.py lines 521-528 to return the
actual expected connection error detail, using a controlled exact message rather
than the generic text. Update the corresponding test in campaigns/tests.py lines
170-175 to assert that OSError('auth failed') produces 'auth failed' in the
response detail.

tests covering that each constructor receives the timeout.

Restrict outbound mailbox connection targets.
Lines 498-518 accept an authenticated user's host names and any port from 1 to 65535. The mailbox service then opens backend TCP connections to those targets. This creates an arbitrary TCP network pivot to loopback, private, link-local, or reserved addresses. This is not HTTP SSRF, but it can support internal service probing.
Enforce outbound network policy before connecting. Deny non-public resolved addresses at the egress layer. Restrict ports to approved mailbox-provider profiles where possible. Add request rate limits for this endpoint.

Preserve and test the required connection error detail. The view replaces the actual connection error with a generic string, and the test permits that behavior.

Set a finite IMAP connection timeout.
Pass timeout=20 to both imaplib.IMAP4 constructors in _connect_imap. This function runs in the synchronous HTTP request path, so an unresponsive IMAP host can otherwise block a request worker. Add tests for both SSL and non-SSL clients.
