There isn't really any code to handle this. You can search the
archives on in-stock or something. I have developed something that is
fairly rudimentary. As soon as I can, I will post a link to a patch
for the construct demo.

IC relies on whatever mail configuration your server itself has. If
you want your server to use a "smarthost" you will need to configure
your Mail Transport Agent (MTA - sendmail, qmail, etc.) to do that.
