sending mail when connected via different ISPs



Setup:

	Home LAN connected via ISDN router
	kmail
	exim

When I send e-mail, I can tell kmail to send the mail locally to sendmail,
which will queue it up and send it to my ISP. Or I can tell kmail to send it
directly to my ISP.

The problem is I often want to connect via a different ISP. My ISP (uklinux)
allows me to send mail via their servers when logged connected from a
different ISP, as long as I provide authorisation.

I can't figure out how to set things up to do this. I have the following in
/etc/exim.conf:

	# Send all mail to a smarthost

	smarthost:
	  driver = domainlist
	  transport = remote_smtp
	  route_list = "* mail.btinternet.com bydns_a"

	end

BTInternet is my usual connection, but now I'm connecting a lot more to
different ISPs. I would like to set things up to always send mail via my
uklinux ISP, regardless of which ISP I've connected with. Is there a way to
put this authorization information (i.e. username/password) anywhere? There's
nowhere in kmail to enter username/password info for SMTP.
