So i've been wondering that google apps adds a domain name to accept mail for that domain, but i am sure they would not go about restarting the mta to reload the settings every time. how do they manage adding a domain in that case?

Put the domains in a database and let your MTA be configured dynamically from that database.

    @Amit I can't identify all your words in your sentence but the verb "to link" is known to me: workaround.org/ispmail/squeeze
