Actually, I just discovered Bruce Guenter's nullmailer. From the main qmail
web page:
Bruce Guenter wrote his own implementation of the mini-qmail idea, only his
(nullmailer) has a queue for more reliablity. It supports SMTP and QMQP, so
it's a drop-in replacement for qmail-qmqpc.
I believe it's exactly what I need here... Woohoo!
