Nonsense. The "qmail" script from LWQ is compatible with the System V
init script mechanism, but it's also perfectly compatible with BSD and
generally useful on all UNIX flavors as a qmail control
interface. Maybe I should rename it qmailctl a la apachectl or
ctlqmail a la ctlinnd...

Granted, I should add a note about adding:
if [ -x /usr/local/sbin/qmail ]; then
/usr/local/sbin/qmail start
fi
to rc.local for BSD variants, but I have no Linux bias. I've been
managing both BSD and Sys V machines for more than 12 years.
