they don't exclude each other.  ideally we have them both.  in the configuraiton file, the default value can be specified and in the process, the default can be overwritten.  but we need to prioritize which one we build first.  my take on prioritization would be this:

1) direct sending
2) global configuration setting
3) configuration per usage in the process file

there is no delay.  even inbetween polls.   the job executor is notified of new jobs by means of a synchronization.
