Well, apart from your's being more polished :)
  The point was that under SpeedyCGI the plugin did not seem to run at
all. I could see it was loaded as normal from the logs, but the hooks did
not even register which suggests that 'sub register' which is rather
trivial was not even run. However, it works fine under PPerl. I could find
no explanation for that other than SpeedyCGI was doing something wrong.

The tcpserver logs are impossible to match up with the qpsmtpd logs, under
SpeedyCGI, making the tcpserver logs pretty useless. That coupled with two
consequetive qpsmtpd sessions possibly having the same pid, makes
investigations unnecessarily more difficult than using plain qpsmtpd or
PPerl. One would've expected that SpeedyCGI would have had at least all
the advantages of PPerl, but this seems not to be the case. I'm going to
stick with PPerl and see if any issues develop. Then I'll consider the
optins, but this logging thing is something I'd rather not have to put up
with.
  Cheers.
