hi corecode,

I recently switched from postfix to dma feeling that dma better fits my needs and do not wastes my hardware resources.

I'm using it in a way that I open a ssh tunnel which entry is at my port 2525 so that my relay is localhost:2525.
sometimes I do not have net or I simply forget the tunnel so my mails a queued which is ok for me since I have a script to warn me of "unsent" mails. I then start the tunnel and force to sent them.

with postfix I did this with `mailq -q` and watched the queue with simply `mailq`.

with dma I watch the queue with `dma -bp` and force-sending with `dma -q` does not work so reliable and I have no idea where to look for errors or log-entries.

Do I use it in a wrong way? I did activate the DEFER option since I actually WANT instant sending if everything is up (which is most often the case).
