And in that vein, in control, you'll need to edit smtproutes so all mail is 
relayed to quark...a line like:
	:quark
should do the job, unless you don't have DNS configured on your laptop, in 
which case you'll need to give the IP address of quark instead. man 
qmail-remote for details on smtproutes. And then the previous stuff about 
ensuring that the laptop is allowed to relay through quark also applies.
