I agree. I understand now that it was, as explained, msmtp waiting for
the remote smtp session to finish. Whcih, whether I knew that or not
wasn't really my point. I just wanted to throw the process of msmtp
blocking while talking to the relay in the background. But I see know
that using the local MTA would be just as 'instant' as putting the
buffer in the background. Or perhaps should I say making that need
obsolete...
