Thanks for that. There are other alternatives such as using msmtp. But
they are a nuisance because they require installing and configuring
another tool for something that Emacs is capable of doing.

The point is there is one key feature that has been accidentally deleted
during the rewrite of smtpmail. This thread is about whether and how
should we bring it back.
