mutt doesn't speak smtp. It simly calls an external program to do it.
Per default it uses sendmail (which is quite sensible, sinc you can then
send mail while offline, and instruct sendmail to send it to the outside
as soon as you go online - but it requires you to configure sendmail a
bit), but you can use any other program for it. There was a mention of a
simple 'speak smtp to remote host' program on the list which would not
anything else. I don't remember it's name, you might want to search the
list-archive for it.
