XRay is the solution I use. I cannot use the automatic selection of SMTP
server since two networks I use assign me an IP address in 192.168.0.0
192.168.0.255 range. However it is very easy to set up a number of SMTP
servers and manually select the right one - right click on the icon in
the task bar and select. Done.

I had previously used a work around similar to the one you are
considering, but XRay is a much better solution.
