No. Here's what you need to do. From the accounts part of the mail prefs, select the "account information" tab. In there just VO right arrow until you hear "outgoing mail server popup button". Activate the popup button and select "edit server list". Press VO space and you will get to the list of smtp servers. Select yours, and edit it. Let me know if you have any problems.
