I wasn't too worried about only supporting Mail.app because I was going to give them a way to also enter their smtp settings manually. But using your framework that only supports 3 mailers with no thunderbird and no access to web based mail ( for people who use it via web) seems like a pretty big problem also.
Oh, indeed, it isn't a perfect solution.

Yes, that would make sense. It would need to be configurable from System Preferences, and you'd probably want a launch agent to automatically try delivery again when the network status changes.
Ideally when it installed you'd want to grab the user's mail settings from wherever they might currently be :-)
Kind regards,
Alastair.
