This is the wrong design. Set delivery to "defer" on the *target* system
without updating any transport tables, something along the lines of:

.forward:
"|exit 75"

Then copy mailbox to new system.
Then change .forward to send mail to new system.
Then change transport on hub to send directly to new system.

Presto magic, no need to synchronize the queue, mail sent to the wrong
system is forwarded to the right one.
