Any of you have a solution that works with smtpmail sending that sets up
an app specific password for gmails smtp server?

I have a setup using the multismtp selection from here:

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MultipleSMTPAccounts

with the difference I set up my smtp accounts thus:-


,----
|  (setq smtp-accounts '(
|                        (ssl "rileyrg" "smtp.gmail.com" "587"
|                             "(nth 0 (auth-source-user-and-password \"rileysmtp\"))" "(nth 1 (auth-source-user-and-password \"rileysmtp\"))" nil)
|                        (ssl "shamrock" "smtp.gmail.com" "587"
|                             "(nth 0 (auth-source-user-and-password \"shamrock\"))" "(nth 1 (auth-source-user-and-password \"shamrock\"))" nil)
|  ))
`----

and then eval the user and password in the  set-smtp-ssl function. But
I'm confused because apparently smtpmail-auth-credentials isnt used for
ssl, so why is it set in that function?

Ideally a simple working sample of setting smtpmails "authentication"
variables in elisp would do.
