"""
Infrastructure for relaying mail through a smart host.

Traditional peer-to-peer email has been increasingly replaced by smart host
configurations.  Instead of sending mail directly to the recipient, a sender
sends mail to a smart host.  The smart host finds the mail exchange server for
the recipient and sends on the message.

    L{checkState} must be called periodically at which time the state of the
    relay queue is checked and new relayers are created as needed.

    In order to relay a set of messages to a mail exchange server, a smart host
    creates an attempt manager and a managed relayer factory for that set of
    messages.  When a connection is made with the mail exchange server, the
    managed relayer factory creates a managed relayer to send the messages.
    The managed relayer reports on its progress to the attempt manager which,
    in turn, updates the smart host's relay queue and information about its
    managed relayers.
