If you followed the advice in the FAQ (created an ~alias/pppdir maildir
and put the line ":alias-ppp" in your /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains)
all your outgoing mail should be in the ~alias/pppdir directories.
Just arrange for serialmail to run whenever your link comes up
(e.g.: run it in your ip-up script)

/var/qmail/bin/maildir2smtp ~alias/pppdir alias-ppp- ip.address.of.your.smtp.relay 
your-helo-name

A better option (IMHO) is to apply the patch and foolow the directions at
http://www.warren.demon.co.uk/qmail.html

If you don't want to deliver mail yourself (you're on a slow, intermittent
link *and* trust the smtp server of you ISP) you can use it to deliver mail
by putting a line in /var/qmail/control/smtproutes

:name.of.your.smtp.relay


Bye
