    So the desired behavior would probably be that sendmail gives a  
    warning to stderr when it is called, right?

sendmail.el could be programmed to check for this.

    If so, would Emacs actually pick that up (at the right point in time)?
    I suppose not, since sendmail is only called when the e-mail is to be  
    sent, right?

That is true, but it may not be as bad as you think.

    But I think what we could do is have sendmail.el issue a 'sendmail - 
    q' command, which flushes the mail queue if the mail system is  
    running. If not, you get this:

That would work too.

However, I am wondering if there is some confusion.
If Postfix is running, why doesn't sendmail.el send out
mail thru Postfix?
