Re: Is it possible to send email by copying a file or files to an appropriate queue directory?

You could use inotify to monitor a directory and trigger a script to send the mail.

To: f...@bar.com
From: b...@foo.com
Subject: example email

Hello World!

Here is a very simple example content of such an email file, but they get much more complex. If the files are valid email files with headers you could just pipe them to sendmail. If the files are not valid emails with headers then you could send them as attachments. Something like the python module envelope would be a simple way to do this: https://pypi.org/project/envelope/
