Whaa? Most Unix UAs do not connect to an SMTP server directly, but submit
via qmail-inject (or more likely a sendmail wrapper).

What if user 'a' can send externally and user 'b' cannot and they both
use, eg, mailx?

The answer is that they'd have to be permissioned and pathed to use
seperate instances of qmail.
