I believe that the Icedove (rebranded Thunderbird) account creation
assistant will improve this a lot; we're working on the migration:

I'm not sure I follow. These users, or someone else, had to configure
"the [email client] they are used to in their normal operating system"
at some point to use a relay host, if they wanted it to be able to
send email in a way that's accepted by most MX out there, right?
The way one does it in Tails is not that different: one enables
persistence for the email client, sets their email accounts up, and is
done with it. I'm not sure how we could make this easier.
Cheers,
