It doesn't matter actually. If you want your driver to be accepted upstream though, I would suggest writing a *transport* SQL driver for Qmail, instead of executing custom commands. /ingo/lib/Transport/Ldap.php could be one such *structural* example. And you still would need to write a *script* driver as I mentioned earlier, so that Ingo would know Qmail syntax.

It depends on the driver. The driver you are using doesn't support Vacations most probably.
