The public_name of the authenticator needs to match that advertised by the 
smarthost - that is 'LOGIN' (and/or PLAIN, CRAM-MD5, etc.).

The transport isn't configured to use a specific authenticator, rather it is 
negotiated between the advertised methods of the server and the public names of 
the locally defined authenticators.

Especially if you're configuring multiple smarthosts, you may wish to extract 
the username/password from a host lookup, rather than putting them directly in 
the config file.
