+  We have been using mod_perl successfully for several months now as a
+  flexible email proxy -- we just wrapped Net::Server::Mail and with a
+  few additional hacks and it worked. Matt Sergeant did the same thing
+  with qpsmtpd and I have heard that the performance results were
+  initially very promising
+  (http://msgs.securepoint.com/cgi-bin/get/qmail0411/120/1/1/1.html).
+  
+  More details of our hack (patches etc.) are at
+  http://www.mailchannels.com/opensource and
+  http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-SMTP/lib/Apache/SMTP.pm.
+  
+  IMHO, using mod_perl as a general application server is a great
+  idea. For us there really was no other viable alternative. We looked
+  at POE, Sendmail's milter API, Net::Server and of course qpsmtpd but
+  the reliability, portability, and scalability of Apache was what
+  caused us to go through the effort of making our bits work on
+  mod_perl.
+  
+  To configure a mail server, it's just a matter of adding a VirtualHost
+  section to the Apache configuration et voila. And as packages such as
+  mod_throttle move over to Apache 2, we will gain the wonderment of a
+  solid resource management tool for mail traffic. Joy!
+  
+  Regards,
