i would put my money on rblsmtp, but you'll have to wait on djb for that.

easy, start another instance of rblsmtp inside itself, pointing at the
the next service, the manpage says how to use a different server, i don't
remeber exactly the sythax, something like: tcpserver rblsmtpd rblsmtpd
-pdul.maps.vix.com rblsmtpd -porbs.orbs.org
etc...
the server you use will depend on what services u use, check each services
homepage to see what is required to use it (rbl is rbl.maps.vix.com, dul
is dul.maps.vix.com) and so on.

yeah, theres a tidbit at the beginning of the qmail homepage that states
(how to allow selective relay) and it tells you how to compile the cdb
database.
