No, I'm looking for a way to define smtps indipendently from the receiving 
accounts, so that you can pick up an smtp to use when you need to send e-mail 
within a network. But I guess evolution cannot do that, as described here:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+question/14028

This is a common problem that both evolution and thunderbird have, but not 
kmail, and I think it is a very interesting and useful feature for people 
using laptops and mobile clients. With that, you can just select the smtp to 
use while writing the e-mail.
