Aha. I bet if you adjust the shell script so the last thing is "exec
qmail-smtpd" rather than just "qmail-smtpd", you'll find that a lot of
extra processes go away.

Nope. I do all of the lookups. In fact, I use the patches that let
me filter on the looked up domain names as well as IP addresses so I
can route some mail for, uh, special scrutiny.
