If a user filter file contains a vacation command (or a mail.. expand
file.. command), the expansions are allowed to perform lookups, eg:
    ${lookup{powerusers}nis{netgroup}}
Would I be correct in assuming this applies to SQL etc lookups too?
I'd like to enable expand for my users, but not allow this sort of thing!
