We are looking to the future, and getting ready to remove OnPrem Exchange.  To do this we need to deal with SMTP Relay.

Microsoft have this doc to help: https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/How-to-set-up-a-multifunction-device-or-application-to-send-email-using-Office-365-69f58e99-c550-4274-ad18-c805d654b4c4

But I wanted to code it ;-)

Quite simple, you need to use an Exchange Online Account:
$Password = "#mailbox password"
$emailFrom = "#mailbox"
$SMTPServer = "smtp.office365.com"
$SMTPPort = 587
$emailTo = "#recipient"
$msgsubject = "testing testing 1-2-3"
$msgBody = "hello world"
$message = New-Object Net.Mail.MailMessage($emailFrom, $emailTo, $msgsubject, $msgBody)
$message.IsBodyHTML = $True

$smtp = New-Object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($SMTPServer,$SMTPPort)
$smtp.EnableSSL = $true
$smtp.Credentials = New-Object System.Net.NetworkCredential($emailFrom, $Password);
$smtp.Send($message)
