For the number of connectons from this host at the time time this
processs was spawned. I'd like to be able to have finer control
over the connection limit. I had an understanding bug over the
smtp_accept_max_per_host opition, and that's part af the way to
solving my problem.

Is the connection handler forked or execed?

Say I set:

smtp_accept_max = 130
smtp_accept_max_per_host = $expansion
smtp_accept_reserve = 50

I'd still like to be able to say:

warn  condition=${if >{$host_connection_count}{${eval:$expansion/3}} {yes}{no}}
      control  =queue_only
