Title: RE: big-concurrency patch
Sorry, maybe you are in the wrong directory? you should not be in the qmail-1.03 dir. because the patch specifies the path already "qmail-1.03/file-to-patch". so if you are in the qmail dir , do a "cd .." and try the patch again. if it still can't work then follow my first instruction, get another version of the tool "patch".
 
Hope this helps

I've tried all kinds of -p options, and left it out, and it doesn't help.

Also, as for it not being the standard big-concurrency patch, would you tell me which one is? Even the one right on qmail's home site is that same patch muddled in with the e-mail.

Thanks,

Mark

That's a clue that you're using the wrong argument to the -p option.
However, it could have another cause -- the patch you pointed to isn't the
standard big-concurrency one; the message above the patch states:

  This is the patch that I use at suse.com. We do almost 1 million messages a
  day with this patch and concurrencyremote set to 400.

  This patch comes with the standard disclaimer. No warranty, it may not
  work, etc. But it works for me :)

  It's also not pretty. It's against qmail-1.03+verh-0.02 (the ezmlm patch
  l and h patch). So the offsets may be off a little bit.

So it's not against standard qmail; it's against qmail 1.03 after the verh
patch has been applied.  If you're not using that patch as well, it's not
surprising it won't apply cleanly.  Try against a vanilla qmail 1.03 source
tree.
