No, not quite - with queue_smtp_domains the routing is done when the
message is received, so the later queue runner knows where it needs to
send each message without re-running the routing on each one
separately - so it can take advantage of an already-open connection to
send each subsequent message. Useful if you have a lot of messages
destined for a single remote server (esp. smarthost).

I've already been proved wrong on this bit so I'll defer...
