By the way, I recently used this hook as well and found it really slow
so I rewrote it to parse the lbdb by hand instead of calling out to
lbdb.  For me, it went from 1.5s to 0.03s.  I edited the wiki as well.
Here's the hook:

file = File.open( ENV['HOME'] + "/.lbdb/m_inmail.list", "r" )
contacts = []
while file.gets
    email,name = split("\t")
    contacts << "#{name} <#{email}>"
end
file.close
contacts

This doesn't do the same thou as far as I can see, your hook only uses
the addresses returned by the module using m_inmail.list; the former one
uses all configured modules.
