Sendmail is fine; what I don't like about postfix could fill a book, but
that's another story.  The fact remains, though, that sendmail on the
RaQ is virtualized fine.

The part of the equation that needs to be fixed is the POPper.

I'm currently developing one specialized RaQ system (announcement soon
to be made in Cobalt Developers if we go ahead with it), but might take
on another.  A Cobalt-based special high-volume email server, eh?  Could
be done, perhaps.

In what respect does sendmail NOT do what you want?  The problem as I
see it is with POP.
