#3870: alternate notification submission (non-SMTP) using sendmail program

It would be helpful to have a notification mechanism that uses
/usr/sbin/sendmail to inject mail instead of using SMTP.
The server on which I run trac has no SMTP server, so I have trac pointing
to our main SMTP server at the office. That server locked up yesterday
causing trac notifications to stall the trac web pages until they timed
out the SMTP connection. Those notices were also lost. If we had
submission via /usr/sbin/sendmail, the local nullmailer queue would deal
with retries. This also allows us to centralize the mail server routing
on the server in one place (the nullmailer configuration), rather than on
every application.
I'd prefer not to run a full SMTP server on the trac box for
administrative reasons, but if I have to, I have to, I suppose.
