Hmm, I had a QMAILQUEUE var lined up for qmail-smtpd, in order to allow
alternative queue functions to be called based upon calling IP (tcpserver)
and my MAILFROM/RCPTTO control files, which would then allow us to
redirect to alternative qmail queues with a different path to qmail-queue
(or perhaps to a /dev/null for some mail :-)).
It did form part of my cunning plan (ahem) to recompile the binaries so
that they could work anywhere with anything read from the environment when
executed, but I haven't had a lot of free time to explore this route
recently :-(
