I don't understand; that is what smtpmail does by default.  Are you sure
you even tried it?

Here's my .authinfo, massaged for public consumption:

machine my.linode.server login itz password s3kri7 port 993
machine my.linode.server login itz password s3kri7 port 587

(587 is the SMTP port on the server).
