Yes. As you point out, it is an SMTP client component, and as such
connects to a specified SMTP server. Performing direct connections to
recipients' servers is the job of an SMTP server.

Yes. But be aware that many ISPs do not allow direct connections from
unknown SMTP clients/servers. In particular, you must make sure that
your IP address is not dynamic, and that your domain's DNS has a correct
PTR record for enabling reverse-DNS lookups, otherwise they will assume
you are a spammer and deny connections from you.
