Hi.

I took your advice and it works great. Thanks!

Now my gnus init file look alot cleaner. I was able to discard 
(defvar smtp-accounts ...)
(defadvice smtpmail-via-smtp ... )
(defun change-smtp () ... )

Just for those who tackle with the same problem. My updated
gnus-posting-style looks like this:

;; Let Gnus change the "From:" line by looking at current group we are
;; in.
(setq gnus-posting-styles
      '(("account1"
	  (address "account1@gmail.com")
	  (name "myname")
	  (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp smtp.gmail.com 587 account1@gmail.com"))
	 ("account2"
	  (address "account2@gmail.com")
	  (name "myname")
	  (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp smtp.gmail.com 587 account2@gmail.com")) 
	 ("account3"
	  (address "account3@gmail.com")
	  (name "myname")
	  (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp smtp.gmail.com 587 account3@gmail.com"))
	 ("account4"
	  (address "account4@gmail.com")
	  (name "myname")
	  (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp smtp.gmail.com 587 chino.toru@gmail.com"))
	 ("account5" (address "account5@hot.ee")
	  (name "myname")
	  (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp mail.hot.ee 25 account5"))
	 ))
