Use multiple SMTP servers with one email address in Mail.app

Actually, modifying the entries in /etc/hosts won't work.

On Mac OS X /etc/hosts is only read during boot time. All other host lookups are managed by lookupd and NetInfo. This is clearly stated in the comment at the top of /etc/hosts.

You need to make the host entries in /Applications/Utilities/Netinfo Manager
