'-t' may be a problem as it strictly doesn't allow you to force the envelope
from, which may be a sensible thing to allow (remember that the webuser may
well run as trusted user, and hence be allowed to set such things).
-odq is a "queue only" switch, according to my copy of the Bat Book. Thus
the mail will sit in the queue until a queue run happens. This will be
dependent on the -q<time> in the invocation of /usr/{lib,sbin}/sendmail.
