You're going to take a performance hit once you start having it bind to 
each IP individually, rather than binding to all the IPs on the nic. Within 
the daemon it actually hooks winsock differently, the end result being a 
lot more overhead work with the stack. It's not that it's impossible to do 
by any means, but if you have a *lot* of domains' mail being hosted on it, 
you'll noticed the difference. Either way, though, I agree - it'd be nice 
to have the choice.
