It wouldn't be for use by end users!

vbull-injector@mydomain.com would be a user in the mailing list subscription. He gets a copy of each post to the list.

vbull-injector is aliased as a pipe to a command line. This is the way Majordomo and MailMan (list managers) handle mail. The injector program would do the same.

I'll probably end up doing this myself. This subset is so easy in comparison to the application you are discussing here. No authentication is necessary. Just the "threading" piece, which is simple enough to do via SQL.
