I am using Dovecot as my mail delivery mechanism for both local and

My setup is for a small business (average 30 users).
The mail system is on a single server.
Which would be better unix/pipes and LDA or LMTP.
A resident LMTP daemon uses fewer CPU cycles than a process that
is created once for each delivery, but with 30 users the difference
matters only if you have a 15-year old computer (i.e. the technology
that was available when I started work on Postfix).

My concern is more with reliability, does moving mail between stack
components gain anything from either LDA or LMTP?
