So, are you saying there is no way to block certain hosts in qmail? I find
that hard to believe. Qmail has been a pretty good package so far, and I
can't believe that would be so limited in this area. Also, what do you mean
I will not be able to "receive mail from a large percentage
of the domains on the internet." I have not had any problems up to this
point. Lastly, I am not sure what comment you are trying to make about my
MCSE certification, but I am proud of the training I have had on all the
operating systems I work with whether they be MS, UX, Linux or otherwise.

You don't.  You also will not be able to receive mail from a large
percentage
of the domains on the internet.
