I don't agree with this, actually. qmail is so poorly designed it can't stay running without a supervisor, and in it's default state is a giant producer of backscatter. I believe Debian is about quality software, not just popular software, and those two reasons alone are sufficient for me to say qmail fails the "quality" test.
