Thanks Aaron. All these all sound good.
On the LMTP point, what about adding persistent database connections to the dbmail-smtp daemon? So have a dbmail-smtp daemon running and it managing a connection pooling mechanism. Then have postfix or what ever forward the messages to the daemon that would manage the all ready open database connection. Maybe split the dbmail-smtp program from the connection manager. Have the mta still pipe to dbmail-smtp, maintaining the same setup for various mta, and add the ability to talk to the connection pooler daemon to dbmail-smtp. Would have to work out the security issues of course. Just wanted to thought that out there and keep i mind I am not a developer so I apologize if I am way out in left field. Can I add imaps and pop2s to the wish list and I strongly support the documentation line item as well.
