Do you have accesss to MS SQL?

Why not store the important email info in the DB (like priority: immediate 
versus bulk), the file attachments - if any - in a file directory with a 
pointer in the DB Table to it, and schedule a SQL Job to run through the 
"queue" picking the "immediates" and bypassing the "bulk mail" during the 
8am-5pm hours?
