No, it's done by qmail-send. (qmail-queue writes the message into 
the queue and pulls the trigger; that's all.)

Yep.

DJB sais that qmail-2.0 will handle this situation better. (Like, you 
want to ditch all mails going to aol.com; once they're 
preprocessed, you can't just put aol.com in virtualdomains and 
/dev/null the messages locally; you must first re-inject the 
messages, so that local/remote decision is retried.)
