Maybe my cold is addling my brain, but I don't see how $Include can be
used to load plugins from different locations.
In my RPM, qpsmtpd and qpsmtpd-forkserver are in /usr/bin (they probably
should be in /usr/sbin instead). By default, qpsmtpd would now look in
/usr/bin/plugins for the plugins, but they are in
/usr/share/qpsmtpd/plugins instead. So a config option is needed to tell
qpsmtpd where they are. In addition, a sysadmin might want to install
his own plugins into /usr/local/qpsmtpd/plugins - this is what Devin's
patch allows.
