Tom Wheeley's utility sounds as if it does most of this, but I'd differ
on the rewriting of *.demon.co.uk. Aparts from mail2news, all mail
to demon sites goes to much the same relay machines regardless of whether
it's directed at post.demon or to myplace@demon. The advantage of
sending it post is that you save a superfluous DNS query: I can't see
any disadvantage, and therefore if I'm editing my mail queue I generally
hack all *.demon.co.uk wrk-files to post anyway.
