Is this for new mail?  You can write a macro that sets $editor to a
script which runs the questionnaire, then runs your real editor, then
sends and changes $editor back to something normal.

Don't know what you mean.

I don't know how qmail-inject works, but
        (
                echo From: me@mine
                echo To: you@yours
                echo Subject: this
                echo Date: now
                echo
                echo bye.
        ) | /usr/lib/sendmail -oem -fme@mine you@yours
is quite a common way of scripting mail deliveries.

Still not clear what you're looking for, but maybe that helps.
