Then we'll either need a way to configure which server to post to, rather
than determine this automatically, or alternatively, a per-server posting
queue, or a queue that logs possible nexthops and marks them "done" after
1st successful try. This is somewhere between INN's outgoing handling and
a mail transfer agent...
I'd thought about one of the two latter options, but not yet implemented
one.
