Yup just run sendmail, <duck>or other MTA</duck>, on the linux box  if you're
on the net the mail will go when it is sent otherwise it will be spooled.

You can add sendmail -q to /etc/ppp/ip-up  then when the linux box get online
it will despool the mail.

You may look at setting the Smart host in /etc/sendmail.cf, so that the mail
goes to your ISP's mail server.
