Got it.
That's the one problem when mathematicans start to program.
Usually very little attention is being paid to performance
optimizations.
One can actually see that in qmail. Well thought out and
very modular. Lots of performance expensive design decisions though.
If SPAMmers can do 200K messages per hour then we should be
able to do that as well when sending legit stuff!

PS. Hehe... yes, I'm trying to provoke somebody into more
performance.... ;)
