        I did just a few hours ago. I received my confirmation request, replied
to it... and I'm still waiting. I'll give it a few more hours.
        BTW, is there any place where the serialmail list is archived? Just so
that I can, uh, search it looking for my question before posting...

        I know it isn't a daemon. In my customer's case, it's started by a cron
job that calls it every 30 minutes using setlock. The complete line is
something like:

/usr/local/bin/setlock -nx ~alias/outmail/seriallock
/usr/local/bin/maildirsmtp ~alias/outmail alias-outmail- [UPSTREAM MAIL
SERVER'S IP] `hostname`


        So, with that in mind, what are the features that you mention above?
:-) (I'm afraid that they will turn out to be "write a shell script to
grep the mails in the queue and touch those who come from $BIG_BOSS",
but oh well...)
