There is now a socket daemon in libsrs2 (run srs -d) and there is a socket
daemon (run srsd) in the Perl version. I think these (and exim) are where
the idea originated. The two are (naturally) compatible.

Right now, I'm preferring the option of a full binary patch against
libsrs2. We now support sendmail, but there hasn't been much testing yet.  
I'm just starting that today. I hope to give maintainers access to a test
Linux system running their choice of MTA for building and testing patches.

More news later.
