I guess you aren't, but I still wish you would.  I've had
thoughts of creating a stored proceedure/function to do some
processing based on customer account status and if valid I
would return the user_idnr, otherwise, pretend they don't
exist.

I'll probably end up modifying the code, but I do something
like that in FreeRadius and being able to just set the select
query in the config file is helpful.

I thought we talked about this once and you said you might
add that ability.

Even cooler would be customizable responses for say the POP
and IMAP servers to say "Hey deadbeat pay your bill and I'll
give you your Email." (I'm sure marketing would approve that.)

Am I working on that? Wasn't aware of it :-)

Bad Idea, IMO. Or rather, the number of queries that are actually a
candidate for such treatment are most likely (very) small.

Address resolving and rewriting during delivery is no trivial matter. It
is a narrow ledge on a steep ridge with loops on one side, and nasty
bounces on the other. Better bring a chute.

I still say: Mark, fix your MTA config. Don't rely on dbmail's address
resolution for more than basic things.
