sending mail from multiple accounts

sending mail from multiple accounts

[Cezar Halmagean]

Hello,

  I am using multiple accounts on different servers which all need their
  own authentication. How can I have a different smtp server for each
  email account ?

Best regards,
Cezar

Have a look at Gnus + msmtp:

  http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/GnusMSMTP

I'm not using it myself, but the explanations there look quite clear.

My way is config gnus-posting-styles to change smtp server settings
dynamically, based on current group name. Apparently, the drawback is
that I should always compose mail in Gnus, where there should be a valid
group name.

Hi William,

  Could you please post an example that does that ?

Sure. I have two accounts, one is gmail, the other is company
account. Below are configs cut from .gnus, slightly edited.

---------------------------------8<------------------------------------- 
(defun xwl-sendmail-by-gmail ()
  (interactive)
  (setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
  (setq smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
        smtpmail-smtp-service 587)

                                     ,smtpmail-smtp-service
                                     "william.xwl@gmail.com"
                                     "passwd")))

  (setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials `((,smtpmail-smtp-server

                                         nil)))
  (message "Will sendmail by gmail"))

(defun xwl-sendmail-by-ce ()
  (interactive)

                                     "passwd")))
  (setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials nil)
  (message "Will sendmail by CE"))

;; company mail groups
(setq xwl-ce-groups
      '("daily-cn" "staff-cn" "staff"))

;; The entire alist will be iterated over!
(setq gnus-posting-styles
      `((".*"
	 (name user-full-name)
	 (address user-mail-address)
         (eval (xwl-sendmail-by-gmail)))
        (,(regexp-opt xwl-ce-groups)    ; CE
	 (address "william@hidden")
         (eval (xwl-sendmail-by-ce)))))
