This module is unbelievably useful. After stressing for days about the fact that a lot of email from our drupal powered site isn't reaching users because of hotmails useless spam filter. After several SPF configurations and even an email to Hotmails senderid people I came upon this module. Now all of my sites email gets sent via google apps for domains. A lovely side effect of this is that any mail sent from the site ends up in my info@ sent items folder. This means I can keep track of everything sent from within google apps.
My only complaint is that setup took 5 minutes longer than it should have. I got an error message after the install and had to look in smtp.module to discover that phpmailer needs to be installed in a folder called phpmailer in the root directory of the module. No biggy and I might contribute a patch to the install instructions tonight to make it easier for drupal noobs.

"This is such a simple module to use I rated the documentation as five, even though I have not even looked..."
"This is a bit mind-boggling that this wouldn't use tokens. So all emails are generic, with no customization..."
"This module is great, most of Drupal's weakness has been in people not understanding it's administration..."
