If the program providing the "sendmail-like" interface does the right
thing, it works. Postfix actually does this remarkably well already,
although the notion of -q1h doesn't make sense in postfix. In any
case, it has to be up to the underlying sendmail interface providing
program.
And also in any case, KISS.
