Now at CVS (and i even works with AF_UNIX socket!)
* proto/scheduler.conf.in, scheduler/mailq.c, scheduler/mq2auth.c,
scheduler/prototypes.h, scheduler/readconfig.c,
scheduler/scheduler.c, scheduler/transport.c:
* scheduler.conf file can now have:
PARAMmailqpath = "UNIX:/path/to/af_unix/mailq/port"
PARAMmailqpath = "TCP:174"
* mailq -p /path/to/af_unix/mailq/port
* mailq -p mailq (check /etc/services for tcp/mailq)
* mailq -p 174 (default case)
Those are for running multiple schedulers in the system,
and allowing each different mailq port.
