Additional Context
I think UCSD switched to Google Workspace and Office 365 Exchange a while ago, and the mail servers in mailspring-provider-settings.json are no longer used.

I think simply deleting the UCSD template from mailspring-provider-settings.json will solve the issue. People with a @ucsd.edu account will use either the Gmail or the Office 365 option to set up their account (which works for my accounts at other institutions that use Google Workspace).
