One feature I lack is Sendmail's "Fallback_MX" - I want my machine to
try to connect directly to the destination host and only if it fails
to use my uplink's SMTP as a relay (so on one hand I won't be
dependent on my uplinks relay when it isn't available and I can send
directly but on the other hand, in case of a delivery failure, my mail
will be handled by the uplink relay while my machine is off-line).
It's very easy to do in Sendmail. Requires (IMHO) ugly hacks to be
done in Qmail. I just gave it up.
