Agreed, and I'll add that the password reminders really need to be VERPed. Of course this will have to be optional for those MTAs which are not VERP happy, but the password reminders are just too cherry an opportunity to overlook for removing addresses which you *CAN'T* deduce from bounce message processing (mail forwards etc).
Definitely. and I've sent the lsat few days immersed in postfix documentation, and it has some real interesting stuff that can be used for optimizing some of what I do. I really like the idea of a direct mysql interface, since it means I can load most of my configuration data into a central server and not have to worry about migrating it out to the farm anymore. It also makes doiing thigns like a distributed list server possible, since you can have two or three boxes out in round robin, and you can tweak the aliases data in the database to have them route list info to processing boxes on the fly, so you can load balance across multiple machines.
Lots of fun stuff here, although it might not be approppriate for a general mailman release, since it can't depend on these functions, I'm guessing.
