maintain a list of current running children. when one dies start a new one.
if is dies delivery failed pass that message off to qmail-queue before
starting another qmail-remote.
with a little twiddling with perl one would optimise the deliveries so
identical message to same remote hosts use the multiple rcpt featuires of
qmail-remote, one could also monitor the maximum per-host concurrency and
prevent overloading of one host.
