That won't work. A script in your .qmail file cannot affect the
environment of successive delivery instructions. What you *can* do is
have the script do the delivery. For example, the script could call
safecat, like so:
#!/bin/sh
YOURVAR=something
safecat /home/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/$YOURVAR/{tmp,new}

Of course you can call qmail-local, but you probably don't want to do
that, since (aside from being complicated) qmail-local expects to
follow delivery instructions from a .qmail file.
