Great, thanks! I think Akopia should add this function to its todo list 
-- incomplete functions are almost as bad as bugs.

I apologize for responding with what should be a Linux sysadmin question, 
but my impression has been that applications usually have some setting 
for this -- otherwise, how would it know whether to use /usr/bin/sendmail 
or /usr/local/bin/qmail? Is there some global setting buried in /etc 
which tells apps which MTA to use by default?

Thanks!
