Yes, no, and not unless you want to. Even without enabling the
generic command server and the @SH processing, the rules file for
mailagent is a full fledged state machines, and one can apply the
rules recursively, and the actio is idfferent depending on what state
on is in.
I can send the mailagent man pages and example setup (included
in the mailagent.deb), if anyone wishes. Also, mailagent shall not
interfere with anything, and affect nothing (including your MTA)
unless you actively edit files and configure it; so you can safely
try installing it on your system.
