tcp_table is Postfix-only. socketmap also works with Sendmail,
and is a better protocol.

You can use any Postfix table-driven feature with socketmap, as
long as that feature is not security-sensitive (for example it is
OK for access maps and routing, but it can't be used for local
aliases because they may contain shell commands, and it can't be
used for virtual uid/gid maps which specify execution privileges).

The socketmap protocol requires that each query specifies a name.
I suppose the idea is that one socketmap server can answer queries
for databases with different names.
