Apparently this has been like this for a long time, but when I enter credentials into the server admin's mail configurator, password fields are left as blank text.

It just bothers me, and it probably bothers someone else too. No idea if anyone really cares about this but the fix is to change the fields to type "password" – can't take more than a few minutes. Entering passwords in plain text is just bad in general.
