[Mimedefang] That didn't work right...

    Okay, I figured out why my filter_recipient check wasn't working.  
All this time I was telling MD to reread it's files (md-mx-ctrl reread) 
when all along I was supposed to restart the service for the changes to 
take effect.  Duh me...didn't even think about it till now.

    Now for the next hurdle.  Like I mentioned in my previous e-mail, 
the main MX server receives e-mail for several domains, and it then 
forwards data to the appropriate mail spool (different machines for 
different domains.)  How can I have it do the recipient check on the 
correct mail spool?  Right now, in filter_recipient() it's checking 
against only one of the mail spools (that happens to host the most 
domains.)  However, incoming e-mail for any of the domains not hosted on 
that spool gets rejected because it's checking the wrong one.  Am I even 
making sense?  Oy...
