You can do this easily from perl code. I've found tdb (from the Samba project) a good choice when you have concurrent readers and writers, though it can get slow for large databases. If you don't want to include perl code your choices are: use an RDBMS; use a helper binary; patch exim; run an external daemon to do the writes and send commands to it over a socket; or some other hacky solution like writing the data to the log file and grepping it out and saving it in a database from a cron job. -- ``... one square paving slab, two feet by three feet...''
