Thanks - it looks interesting. One question about the plugins - how do you maintain a database connection persistent for a worker process? The docs only say:
There is no restriction, what you can do in “register()”, but creating database connections and reuse them later in the process may not be a good idea. This initialisation happens before any “fork()” is done. Therefore the file handle will be shared by all qpsmtpd processes and the database will probably be confused if several different queries arrive on the same file handle at the same time (and you may get the wrong answer, if any).
So is there a way to initialize the connection just after the fork - and before any request is served?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
