Hi Ben,

I'm definitely interested in having this feature. But it does open up
some complications because we have to be able to call the MTA in two
different modes.

But this might not be such a big deal because most MTAs have basic
sendmail compatibility. Judging from the entries on the Sup Wiki for
msmtp, ssmtp, and putmail, we should be fine just calling the account's
sendmail command without -t and with the recipient email addresses.

Reformatted excerpts from Ben Walton's message of 2009-05-31:

You could just make it say "Bounce to #{to.size} recipients?". :)
