Ugh. The only downside I see is that for each message you'd need to start
up a database connection, or you'd have to have a separate process to
handle the database connection and would entail making some type of RPC
call which isn't much better.

Why on earth would you want to pollute Mailman with Perl?? Mailman is
written in the much more fun Python (although I wouldn't dare to say that
Python is funner to look at than your "grrly").
