What are the possibilities that qpsmtpd could be the only MTA on a
system?  It would need to handle
* incoming mail
* local mail forwarded to MDA
* Internet mail forwarded to Internet

It should be fairly possible, but I'd recommend a separate MDA daemon - partly because it has to run as root so it can su to the correct user in most situations.

Alternatively for inbound mail an IMAP plugin would be cool. It'd need everyone's password though.

I wrote MrQueue a while ago to facilitate outgoing email queueing. It's on the cvs server on axkit.org if anyone wants to poke about with it. I don't currently use it though.

There's also Tipjar::MTA which you could use for outbound mail IIRC.

I guess all of this is just a matter of how much programming you want to do :-)

Matt.
