This is my current setup. So frob in this case means change the variable
to the desired server, send the mail and then reset the variable. As
this is only a one-off this is not a problem, but it seems odd not to
use C-u 0 C-c C-c method if I am already sending through smtpmail-send-it.

I suppose that if I was in a particular group I could automatically set
the variable.

Thank you for the lesson.
