You still need to be able to subtract local-only domain names, and add
non-local domain names. I would say that qmail-smtpd should access a
cdb which is constructed from locals + virtualdomains + a new file
named receivebysmtp, which has lines that start with a + if the host
should be acceptable for receipt via SMTP, and a minus if the host
should not be acceptable (which is another way of saying "was found in
locals or virtualdomains but we wish to reject").
