A funny story: I actually remember from early days of Internet in my country
something people called "SMTP by train". It was no SMTP actually, but in
case when there was a prolonged link failure between mail servers in two
cities, these guys just made a copy of mail queue from one server on a tape,
took a train to the other city and copied the messages into the queue of the
second server there... Then of course they did the same procedure in the
other direction...
