[PATCH] Reviving qmail with X-Message-SMTP-Method in Gnus

[Mohsen BANAN]

Dear Colleagues,

I have been using qmail (as a resident MTA) with
Gnus through X-Message-SMTP-Method based on the
attached patch.

It is just two lines.

All of what is needed to support qmail is already
in Gnus and these two lines revives them.

Lars, could you please apply this patch?

Documentation can also then be updated in:
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/message/Mail-Variables.html

Architecture of qmail makes for an excellent
customizable mail sending agent which can be
integrated with Gnus. More on this later ...

Thanks and regards,
