It's not really a qmail issue. If a particular mailhost is bogging down
because it is accepting more SMTP connections than it can actually handle,
it's due to:
-poor configuration. Solution: tell the sysadmin.
-poor administration. Solution: tell the sysadmin.
-poor choice of MTA on their end. Solution: tell the sysadmin.
If a site can only handle 5 incoming SMTP connections at a time, their
system should be configured to only accept 5 simultaneous incoming SMTP
connections. A qmail instance attempting to deliver to that system can't
(and shouldn't try) to tell whether the system can actually handle a
connection that it accepts.
