It is not just a simple matter of calling the qmail "sendmail" wrapper. So, even when people get OpenMail installed and working, there is going to be a lot of configuration/integration work to make it work with qmail. And we will not be changing e-smith to use sendmail for security, performance and reliability reasons.
