Hi Juhan, That's an awesome project !
To answer your question: it would not be hard to provide a endpoint to "send a mail" in a server-to-server context. It's just a matter of writing an extension to the webadmin code (it's basically where all REST APIs are located) that would retrieve the MailQueue and call enqueue to it. Feel free to ask for help if needed.
