delaying mails

[Alex Neuman]

If you have a spare server and can pay by PayPal I can give you a solution,
but in order for it to work with *some* users those users will have to be
on a separate server.

This is *way beyond* the scope of MailScanner or the MTA for that matter.

It's still doable, though.
