New Damned if I know.
It has been a LONG time since I set it up.
Care to point me into the direction to figure it out for qmail?

New qmail?
Not a clue. Horrible, horrible software.

My only advice about qmail would be to rip it out and replace it with something (a) sane and (b) much faster, like for example a dead squirrel set in concrete.

Exim and Postfix are both much better.

New Hey, it was a good choice at the time
Was setup in Y2K!

It had a great security history, and my email admin at my employer had setup a few recently (at that time), so was helpful.

I anticipate a system rebuild in a few months, which will give me the option to move to something else, but this one has served me well.

Not one outage in 5 years!

New There's one good thing in Qmail
And that is the Maildir format.

New Yes. but...
...Exim can deliver to Maildir.

Quite honestly, the completely unsupportable nature of any non-trivial qmail installation renders it useless in my eyes.

New Amen, brutha!
I have been using exim4 to deliver to Maildir format for years now. Using Courier-Imap to get access to that.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]
