poking very briefly, it looks like the rt2 rt-mailgate returns an exit
status of 0, despite the non-existant queue. This is probably a bug,
but I haven't dug down to see what's exiting.

Also, when I call rt-mailgate from the command line, and feed it bad
data, my rt admin mailing address get's the bounce. Did you check there?
