I bet you stumbled upon a hanging smtp-dummy. There is a patch [1] to fix that. Hopefully it would get pushed soon. As for not requiring dtach for emacs_deliver_message, that is definitely possible. Currently, there is only one way to run emacs to keep it simple. And I am not sure if running emacs_deliver_message without dtach costs extra code.
