For various reasons, this is what I was thinking of doing, although the
specifics you provided will surely prove useful.  If VMailer isn't
officially released by January, then sendmail should make its way onto our
machines again before the start of next semester.

I did throw a quick hack into a piece of qmail today that brought the queue
from 5000+ and growing down to 133 in about three hours.  It looks
promising, but I don't like to get too excited until it proves itself for a
few days.
