Summary:                    add "include" support to config file
Description: 
It would be nice to be able to include other config files within
dbmail.conf.  It makes package updates much easier (put local stuff in one
file that overrides settings in the distribution config file(s)), and can
keep things cleaner as the size of dbmail.conf increases.

Recursive includes should be handled, and of course the ability to change
from one config file section to another and back to the first again.

If ever sql statements are configurable in a config file, this would be
quite nice to have done.

This won't happen anytime soon, I suspect. 

We use Glib's GKeyFile type to read the config-file, and that doesn't
support 'includes'.

Of course, this is totally unrelated to storing sql statements in the
config-file. A different matter altogether.

The make install process does not overwrite an existing dbmail.conf. With
the limited number of items to be configured, an include option would be
overkill.
