That's not that different from what pop-before-smtp does, and that works quite well, though it keeps a daemon running that watches the maillog file, which I suspect is much more efficient. Certainly toward the end of the day that seed can take some time to run, I'd think. Still, looks like a good starting point. -- Man is born free, but is everywhere in chains.
