And we promise not to fix it if we don't know it's broke :-)

We've wondered whether InterMapper should try three ways to send a message,
falling back as necessary. For example, InterMapper could attempt a SMTP
connection directly with host named in the e-mail address. Failing that, it
would attempt to relay through its configured primary SMTP host, then attempt to
relay through the back-up SMTP host. 

(The current implementation skips the first step, and immediately sends to the
primary server.)

A question for James: Would this three-tiered implementation do what you want? 

And a question for the list: Would this new three-tiered proposal break current
deployments?

Thanks!
