As I mentioned before - with OPES you can send parts of an 
applications message to the callout server, you're not forced to send 
the entire message. With SMTP, you would always have to sens the 
entire message. LEss efficient. Do I miss anything here?

Plus the additional - deployment/implementation specific - benefits 
Martin and Alex mentioned.
