Hello,
Sorry about my english, I'm speaking in french normaly.

That's a suggestion,
After long time I discovered the place that we can assign the outgoing server.
I propose that should be on the server parameters.

Je ne sais pas si c'est compréhensible mais pendant longtemps je ne trouvais pas à quel endroit assigner le serveur sortant en fonction du compte et c'est que récement que j'ai découvert l'option dans le premier onglet et non dans "Paramètres serveur"

Very understandable. David why is smtp not under server setting  - because one can use the same server for two accounts (mail and news ) ?

yes, they are separate servers and you can mix and match smtp servers however you like (e.g., you can use the same smtp server for all your incoming mail identities/accounts.

Though in a way it's already there, too. (The choice of which smtp to use.)
