Grip seems to queue album submissions with the sendmail
executable. There should be an option for specifying
another SMTP server for those of us who don't configure
sendmail to forward outgoing e-mail.

I agree with this request.

It's easy to work around this by creating a symlink like:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/msmtp /usr/sbin/sendmail
but I agree it would be far preferable to be able to set this in the configuration.

It doesn't depend on sendmail, but the sendmail command which is provided by several mail servers, such as postfix, qmail, ssmtp, msmtp, esmtp, dma etc.

You might need to update the sendmail alternative by using «update-alternatives» after installing the the mailserver of your choice.
This should be done automatically by installing the prefered mail server package.
