I have two smtp addresses, one for work and a personal one at
Gmail, and I used to have a similar setup. But I discovered
recently that you can configure Gmail to send mail from another
address (In Gmail: Settings, Accounts and Import, Send mail as),
so I just left my smtpmail with gmail, and now Gmail decides from
where to send the email according to the "From" field in the
message.
I set up my user-mail-address as my work email, since that is the
one I generally use, and then use gnus-posting-styles, so that if
someone sends me a personal email, I reply using the personal
email:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq gnus-posting-styles
`(
...
((header "To" ,(regexp-quote "username@gmail.com"))
(address "username@gmail.com"))
((header "CC" ,(regexp-quote "username@gmail.com"))
(address "username@gmail.com"))
((header "BCC" ,(regexp-quote "username@gmail.com"))
(address "username@gmail.com"))
...
#+END_SRC
This method has the advantage of keeping a copy of the sent mail
from the work address in the Sent Mail folder of Gmail, so all
sent mail is in one place.
Best,
