I do use postfix. I read the SASL info, but I didn't notice a way to configure 
multiple defaults. I can look at that again.  (One thing I'm trying to monitor 
is postfix! 🙂) 

Still, if monit supports multiple mailhosts and it supports smtp auth, it 
should support multiple mailhosts each with auth.

Well. You'll have more luck doing that in postfix or whatever you use to
relay email. Did you look at ssmtp?

Can't remember if it supports multiple auth or protocols.
