On a more general level, regarding Jose's idea:

What are the ways to send local messages so that they end up in the mail
spool file?

It seems to me a simple question and I seem to remember being able to do
it, but now when I try to remember how I did it, I can't find the way.

There's a discussion of the problem, in french, here:
http://linuxfr.org/forums/10/6606.html
where they sum up the problem as "a mail server without a mail server".
The best solution they came up with, it seems to me, was using
getmail_mbox or getmail_maildir, and putting that in a script and putting
"set sendmail=/path/to/my/myscript.sh"
 presumably as part of a hook, in the rc file.

Any ideas?
