Hi,
I tried using msmtpq for offline use on my Mac, and found that the script
has a couple of platform dependencies (ping command line options, for
instance) and even with those fixed, has issues with connection tests which
Allen mentioned here:
http://sourceforge.net/p/msmtp/mailman/message/33502912/
(Sounds like at least some of these have been fixed in the latest version
though, but Homebrew on Mac has still not pulled in the latest code.)
In any case, I also have a couple of other requirements:
- I use msmtp with multiple accounts and while on VPN to my office network,
and depending on where I am, I sometimes want my personal mail to get
queued but my office mail to get sent out immediately, etc. The connection
tests in msmtpq are all-or-nothing right now, while I need the queue
manager to try connecting to the appropriate SMTP server before deciding
whether to queue or send each email.
- I need the queued mail to get flushed as soon as I get back online, and
not stay in the queue (as seems to be the case with msmtpq currently) until
I send another email.
Wrote a replacement Ruby script which does these and a couple of other
things. It also has some basic queue management features, though not as
comprehensive as msmtpq. The script is available here:

Maybe some of you might find it useful.
Cheers,
Venky.
