[JDEV] Email trasnport

[Julian Fitzell]

As far as I know, all the current SMTP transports work by acting as 
their own SMTP server on the SMTP port.  So all you need to do is 
specify the machine running the SMTP transport as an MX host for your 
domain in your DNS record and it should handle the email for you.

Admittedly in many cases this isn't a good thing.  I already run a real 
SMTP server on my jabber machine so I don't have this option... I've 
often thought of modifying the code so you can forward messages to a 
certain virtual domain through to the transport on the command line but 
have never got around to it.
