dma user config

hey,

thinking about it, I don't think we should have a per-user config for dma. It doesn't really work out when using aliases and forwarding.

Example:

some cron job running as "nobody" mails output. You have an alias line

nobody: myuser
myuser: myrealuser@example.com

now if you have a smarthost in your per-user config, how should dma ever access this file? I don't want dma to be setuid root.

Postfix and sendmail usually assume one smarthost and one user/password.

cheers
  simon
