If defaultdelvery is just "./Maildir/" or some other simple one-liner,
there's not much advantage other than putting all the configuration
settings in one place.

But since defaultdelivery is a .qmail file, it can be quite
complicated--multiple lines--and embedding a *file* in a single
command line argument is messy. Putting it in a separate file also
removes shell quoting problems.
