Qmail SMTP routes, single route

Qmail smtproutes can only handle one route per egress domain name.

Example:

example1.com:10.0.0.1
example1.com:10.0.0.2

Will send mail only to 10.0.0.1 The second entry will be ignored.

You are better off using round-robin DNS or submitting a patch to handle priority routing.
