Did you ever get to look at "mode queue" ?  It's years since I did, but
I think it works something like this, receiving into a temporary file,
and then sending it (to mailbox or for forwarding) next time round the
smtp_check loop.  You need an extra .../rqueue directory as well as
../mqueue, I seem to recall: at least I had one for ages on Warren Mk.1,
whose purpose otherwise escapes me !
