Kevin already mentioned smtpmail.el.

>>From looking at the source, smtpmail.el does not appear to grok ESMTP
AUTH, but it should be possible to replace `open-network-stream' in
the function smtpmail-via-smtp with `open-ssl-stream', and that should
pretty much work.  open-ssl-stream is part of ssl.el which comes with W3.
