CAUTION: The requirement is for your module to write a 
drupal_mail_wrapper function just as smtp does.  However there are more 
than one module that implements that function.  If you enable more than 
one defining the same function then it breaks your Drupal system.  
Besides the devel module I know of returnpath module that defines 
drupal_mail_wrapper.
