Cool.

1. I noticed some SQL things,

In README,

  query = "select remote_name from forwarder, domain where local_part = '$local_part' and
forwarder.domain_name = domain.domain_name and domain.domain_name = '$domain'"

is equivalent to:
        select remote_name from forwarder
          where local_part = '$local_part' and domain_name = '$domain'

Ditto the other query.

2. In default user, "local_part = '_default_'" how do you feel about
   changing that to '*'? The reasoning is a) people could conceivably
   want _default_ as a valid email b) it translates directly into
   something exim can understand in its lsearch* lookup type. (Can
   anyone tell b) is the real motivator? :-) Why I'm doing this is
   trying to put all the data in CDB format generated from a database on
   account of exim's constantly re-exec'ing/re-connecting architecture
   which mitigates against targetting a database in a big system.
