The strange thing is that they dont deliver any mail when they connect,
they merely connect repeatedly, up to several times a minute, and when that

Anyway, why go to all this hassle. There are ready programs to do exactly
this for you - unix systems come built in with a vacation message, and
there's one available on www.qmail.org if you don't like the built-in

Since I didn't see any in the mailing list archives, here are some diffs

/var/qmail/queue CANNOT be shared. /var/qmail/bin can only be shared
between identical machines (including the 7 qmail users and groups). The
rest may be shared. The user home directories may be shared as well.
