Only w.r.t mailfront.

mailfront will have pattern matching on mail from and rcpt to in the 
near future. Mailfront will:

- speed up mail delivery
- not mangle non-USASCII mail or headers
- avoid some potential mail failure scenarios
- allow scanners, etc. to hook into mail delivery
- be fully supervised, so it stays up, all of the time
- return us to something which looks almost exactly like a qmail setup
- replicate all of the existing SME Server features

BTW: As an interim measure, you could do pattern matching in a qmail-queue
wrapper.

No, it won't.
