OS/390 USS ("Unix System Services") has had a sendmail port for a long time. Can't speak to its performance -- we only use it for low volume outbound mail -- but it *is* sendmail.
It might be useful (albeit crazed) to have an operating system running in the VM take control of the real system -- while preserving the former host in a VM.
This could have some application in automated (read: novice) testing and installation of new kernel code. Or perhaps a stripped-down and minimal "hypervisor" could be crafted that ran multiple virtual guests, but which removed itself from the system when only a single guest was present.
Can't imagine this is a trivial exercise, but that's what we pay you for. (Hee!)
A little pricey to be sure, but they look really keen. They'll have a real winner here when they (1) lose the big "instrumentation package", (2) reduce the power requirement from 2.5W, and (3) make it affordable to Everyman.

Why are these things so expensive?
