assuming vexim uses the same lookup syntax as exim (never heard of
exim), then the question comes, what are you trying to do? I.e. is it
like a table with the username, maildir, password, quota, etc?

If so then it would absolutely HAVE to be different queries because it
could be an entirely different process that obtains the password vs
obtains the maildir or what not. Exim does not share data between
processes except with it's db files (retry, lookups, hints, etc...).
