Well, I can't give you a 100% guarantee, but that /should/ cover virtually
everything for qmail installed from source with the default paths.

If you have locate installed (and an up to date locate database), you
could also do a 'locate qmail' which might find any other bits that are
left behind. Failing that, check your /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d/init.d
directory for anything that looks qmail related.

Heh, I can but try. I run qmail myself, and find it nice in some ways, but
an absolute pain in others (if anyone knows how to stop qmail bouncing
messages until the bounces are approved - eg. if qmail has problems
authenticating the user, it seems to assume the user doesn't exist :/ ).

Exim on the other hand was really easy to setup, but not as configurable
as I'd like (I'm sure it can be configured, I just don't know how).
