Sorry for off-topicness to the list subscribers, but this is a good example on why email on Unix sucks. Is there really not a simple /usr/sbin/sendmail -replacement which would just deliver local mail and send the rest using a webmail account (we're talking about a single user machine here)? Of course it should also buffer outgoing mail until network connection becomes available. This kind of thing could be written in bash + python and ran from cron, instead of consuming several megabytes all the time like exim in Debian. Anyone heard of a mailer like this?
