What I do have mh use the exim MTA on my local machine, which is
configured to use ssl connexions to the relevent smarthost for
each separate account, so if I send mail from my ISP provided
email address, it goes out through their smarthost and so on. My
doesn’t accept (doesn’t need to accept) incoming smtp
connexions, and the outgoing ones are not typically to port 22,
so maybe that would work for you?
