This is awesome work, it opens a wider interoperability between our components which are commonly placed close to each other in a number of infrastructures. I hope David (who originally asked for the feature) will quickly test and provide us with some feedback. I'll forward your mail to the haproxy mailing list, since I know there are a number of postfix users there too. Best regards, Willy
