If you want
all the emails from your server to go via this mailer, you'd need to set your local mail subsystem to use this smtp.com one as a SMARTHOST (how to do this depends on your local mail subsystem but in sendmail it's a setting in the m4 file, or in the cf if you like to hurt yourself, in postfix it's a config variable in the postfix config).
If you just want your web form mails to use the service, find the SMTP settings in there and replace localhost with your smtp.com details.
By the way, have a look at mandrill.com for outbound email - I use this service and it's free for relativly low volumes of email (thousands of messages per month). I am not at all affiliated with them etc, I just happen to like this service

NAME
calibre-smtp - part of calibre
SYNOPSIS
calibre-smtp [options] [from to text]
DESCRIPTION
Send mail using the SMTP protocol. calibre-smtp has two modes of operation. In the compose mode you specify from to and text and these are
used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.
text is the body of the email message. If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN. from is the email address
of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
negotiation, the message headers are not modified.
Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.
