The results of those lookups are saved in env.vars, so that other process
takes hardly any time to run.

I'm working hard on a checkpassword replacement to do multi-domain stuff -
one UID per domain for all popboxes (and also FTP and shell on that UID, for
website maintenance), instead of one UID per popbox (our current sendmail
setup).

That's true, I applied just the bigdns patch, and I had the todo patch for
a while but I removed it in the investigation of a performance problem. The
todo patch had nothing to do with it, but I never put it back in.
I did hack qmail-smtpd a little bit to call an external program for the ETRN
command. Still need to code that external program tho :)
I also made qmail-send a little more verbose, to report if an 'out of
filehandles' error was due to the processlimit or the systemwide limit.
