Because this provides an MTA-independent method of releasing the
message.

Unfortunately, it's not that easy. Each MTA sets up a different
environment when doing program deliveries that I'd have to duplicate
when delivering with TMDA. When the MTA modifies its behavior, TMDA
would have to as well.

Also, to support dot-qmail files, TMDA would actually have to invoke
qmail-local to do the delivery which is a rather complex procedure.

By re-injecting, I don't have to have prior knowledge of the local
delivery agent's behavior.
