      Mailer.DescriptorImpl.smtpAuthPassword is currently a Secret. It should be deprecated and switched to use the credentials API for more flexible management.

          Comment [ To borrow [~vlatombe]'s directions for maintaining backwards compatibility when I did this migration with a closed source plugin:

          To handle the migration of old data, keep the old fields with {{transient}} and deprecate them.

          Then you'll need to implement

          {{protected Object readResolve() { }}

          {{    // Migration code }}

          {{    return this; }}

          {{} }}

          in order to create credentials from prior username/password, then set these to null to do it only once. ]
