Richard, 

I guess you already knew about ODMR (RFC2645), which uses ATRN 
protocol. 

We tried to patch sendmail for ATRN, but it's quite a complex beast 
inside... so in the end we wrote a special ATRN server that flushes 
the sendmail queues. 

See our project on http://sourceforge.net/projects/infinymail/ 

for further info. 

A bonus is that it can easily be modified to handle qmail queues or 
exim or whatever...
