+(313) 21-Jan-05 ? Multiple queues
+
+Exim runs poorly if its queue gets too big. Various ways round this are all
+to some extent kludges. There has been a suggestion of using multiple
+directories instead of just "input". (Originally it was for a whole set of
+spool directories, but that introduces complications with the hint files.)
+On message arrival, somehow a selection of "input" must be made. Then queue
+runners must be startable for the different "queues". Don't forget that the
+"msglog" directory is also involved. Perhaps add a new level of indirection:
+/var/spool/exim/queue1/{input,msglog}, /var/spool/exim/queue2/....
