I'm not concerned with this. I'm concerned with Fred's proposal
relying on the status of the remote smtp and qmtp server. If I'm
"local" and someone else is "remote" and remote's qmtp service is
down, but remote's smtp server is still advertising qmtp then I
shouldn't have my queue grow because of it. There should be some
local communication about bum servers if this database is used, to
prevent it from severely slowing down email.
