Hi Rajesh,

I think you're still running QMT/CentOS 6, correct?

If so, I've uploaded a qmail update
<ftp://ftp.qmailtoaster.com/pub/repo/qmt/CentOS/6/testing/x86_64/qmail-1.03-1.qt.el6.x86_64.rpm>
to the QMT/CentOS 6 repository that incorporates the DNS patch you
referenced (any-to-cname.patch) and the starttls flush io patch
<http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/555316> which I've been derelict in
implementing.

It has not been tested. If you do install it and something goes wrong,
it most likely won't, you can always downgrade which I've been doing
regularly with success (of late) on CentOS 7 with qmail while testing
other patches. Be mindful that I haven't downgraded on CentOS 6

The patch (below) has relatively minor, yet very helpful, coding changes.

Eric
