I think the key problem is just that smtpmail.el is old; the author
also
wrote GnuTLS -- it works best with this, but not on windows.

Actually, you might want to try a completely different option. I've
been following
instructions from on msmtp -- this is a lightweight SMTP client which
looks to the outside world
(specifically emacs!) like sendmail.

I've managed to get it working with cygwin -- will be trying Ubuntu
next, and it should work
on mac, although I have no ability to test these.

There's documentation on EmacsWiki about it; the config is a bit hairy
at the moment, so
I'll probably write a proper wrapper library for it at some point;
smptmail-openssl.el can then
be retired for the hack that it is.
