[gentoo-user] Simple SMTP queue for a laptop

[Tom Eastman]

Hey guys,

I know there must be a bunch of these out there, but there's always a problem 
with signal-to-noise for this kind of question.

I have a laptop, from which I would like to be able to send mail whenever I feel 
like it.  This laptop is only occasionally connected to the internet, and has 
very low resources (so memory resident daemons are less favourable).

So what I'm looking for is a program that acts like 'sendmail' (so that I can 
send email from mutt), and when it gets mail to send it stores it in a queue.

When I'm connected to a network, I can then manually dump the queue onto the 
smtp server *of my choice*, since the server would very depending on where I'm 
plugged into.

Some kind of command like:

	$ sudo dump_all_mail_to   smtp.wherever.i.am.net

Does such a program exist?  Really I'm just looking for something like ssmtp, 
but with a queue.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

	Tom
