No, my situation is different: the p machine normally is connected, but
for some reason, can be unconnected for extended (days to weeks) periods
of time, or ever, more likely, to have the smtp service unactive, or even
just refusing email from certain domains.
But when active it must receive all messages in real time, because among
the services it is used to send notifications to a paging system.
