Why? Diapup is just a host wrich needs to receive no connections
(except from localhost, if people on this machine use MH), which
sometimes wants to re-write all the outgoing addresses, and
usually sends all the outgoing mail to a smarthost.

I think I'll post my autoconf scripts (which nobody uses) and a
cinfoguration I use at home (theoretically, there will be more
than one UNIX box, and the "main" box collects mail from everyone
and sends it to the smarthost when online, also re-writing
addresses and doing some more weird stuff).
