Sorry if I lost some parts of your interesting discussion. So this remark/
question might be a really dumb one...

I currently run Balsa with the "Local Mail Transport Agent" button checked,
and use fetchmail to get new messages. I must admit that it took me *weeks* to
get a working sendmail configuration for my needs, so I would strongly support
a more user-friendly mechanism... :-)). So, just to check back, does your lib
support the following:

* rewriting of headers (the masquerade/virtusertable stuff in sendmail. I had
to patch sendmail to get everything working, btw);

* "expensive" queues (I have an ISDN line, and I do *not* want to dial in for
every new mail to be sent), but I need immediate delivery in the local subnet.

Thanks, Albrecht.
