Mutiple smtp accounts has numerous solutions - some which do and some which dont work with multiple gmail accounts and the latest Gnus and for someone not familiar with elisp to a high level its pretty complicated. Thsi issue has been here for a while, the fact its raised regularly is proof of the pudding, and I believe the developers intend to get Gnus working with multiple smtp accounts from the base gnus using the authinfo files at some stage. Perhaps already done - I dont know.
