Answer 1

I'm afraid it's not doable natively.
But you can trick it a bit by modifying the @@smtp_settings variable in the model.

There's an article on Oreilly which explains it pretty well even though they code is not clean at all. http://broadcast.oreilly.com/2009/03/using-multiple-smtp-accounts-w.html
