You don't HUP or restart qmail-send too often then.

The file is scanned during startup of qmail-send, and after HUPing 
qmail-send. If you don't do that often, you don't need to worry.

But then again, if you need to administer a file with like 900 
significant lines, you'd like to use some automatic tool for that. It's 
easy to adapt that tool to work with morercpthosts and cdb format.

Please correct me if I'm wrong - you may also leave rcpthosts 
empty and stuff everything in morercpthosts if it matters.
