I use gnus-posting-styles and X-Message-SMTP-Method to setup the reply
for each of my accounts (I use Gnus to manage 3 or 4 email accounts,
including a gmail one). For example, in the current buffer, Gnus has
inserted
I do not have `smtpmail-default-smtp-server' set.
This is the only way that I have found to reliably get Gnus to work with
multiple smtp servers.
