Right, I see. However, what I meant to ask is if there is a way to have 
the registration of such a stub to be more or less automagically done 
during test runs by the zope.sendmail package instead of having to think 
about this over and over again in the packages directly or indirectly 
depending on it.

I *thought* to see a way of getting rid of global data in 
zope.testing.cleanup, and I wonder if we could think of a way to set up 
global data in a similar manner
