Most of the time, it's freed by the most efficient algorithm
imaginable: _exit. Thanks to qmail's highly modular structure, most
qmail programs don't live long enough for the concept of memory leaks
to even apply. If you look in the long-running programs, though, you
will probably find that strings are not allocated frivolously. I have
never bothered to look carefully, but neither have I seen any signs of
the long-running daemons bloating with time.
