Peter van Dijk:
3) Use a UNIX socket, TCP/IP, named pipes, whatever you want, to communicate between user-level, user-owned processes (which might be a nice sendmail-like interface) and a long-running process that writes into the queue. No s[ug]id execution, no world-writeable dirs, just a small performance hit.
Unfortunately, that means that mail cannot be posted when the mail daemon is not running. Wietse
