In 1.2 stable -- It's possible, but a little complex; you need to
define your own 500 error handler, duplicating the logic of the
default handler, but mailing using your preferred server.

In trunk -- yes. In trunk, 500 error emails are now handled as a log
handler, which makes it easier to write and install custom behavior.
