SMTP host server different to email host

I set up several sites for clients and regularly run into issues with email delivery. I usually host the websites. If email is hosted elsewhere, it can often be an issue to get email account/SMTP details. It’s also not ideal if the email password is changed and not updated in the plugin.

For these reasons, I’m wondering, can the SMTP host and email/password used be from the server that the site is hosted on. Different to the From email/website domain? Or must the SMTP and email details be for the same email/domain of the website?

For example, I would use the SMTP host and port details of my hosting server smtp.liquid-moons.co.uk and set up something like smtp@lquid-moons.co.uk as the email to use on all client sites hosted on my server.

Thank you
Claire
