No, after reinstalling the qmail binaries(removing the patch), I had to
reinstall AMaVis to get the server to function again. I have not tried
patching it, and then installing AMaVis. I'm going to go under the
ASSumption that if I do it in that order, it might work. The only thing, is
I am trying to scrounge up a test server to try this on.
