that the outgoing queue is managed by my MTA is not new to me and I know
this and have described this in text. So your reply is no help on this
topic. Nevertheless I think it would be practical if postponed messages
could be send without reediting it before. This would have the same
effect than having a mailqueue mailfolder and would be an easy solution.
