qmail-Linux-distribution
I recall some time back there was much discussion about having a linux distrobution with qmail rather than sendmail. This, to me, makes more sense than I have time for here. I also recall there being much debate about Redhat wishing to do this, yet, for various reasons this did not happen. Every Redhat server I set up I need to go throuth the process of ridding the system of sendmail and istalling qmail. I use the memphis rpm and wrote up a simple install script to to do this with. Then i thought how much easier this would be if the rpms were part of the distribution rather and installed during setup, rather than laboriously uninstalling sendmail ( and applications that depend on sendmail) So I started piecing together my own redhat clone (yes, yet another) and would like to know what I need to do to have qmail included with this distribution. Did anything positive result from the experience with redhat? What obligations do people have when distributing qmail?

qmail distro and UID
I am putting together a redhat clone and have omitted sendmail entirely. of course exmh nmh fetchmail etc complain, but that can be remedied later. I have been looking and reading up on qmail-run and var-qmail packages. If I use the qmail-run-4-4.i386.rpm functions-3-3.i386.rpm What should I use in the way of var-qmail. My understanding is that it needs to be compiled on each machine, but as this is a fresh install, but maybe used for upgrades, I am concerned about UID's. Should I simply create a .rpm from the source supplied or can someone recommend a better method. Kind regards Kevin

My concern is not with people upgrading from RedHat but trying to run the upgrade over an existing installation.

qmail distro
I have put together the first beta of a RH clone and deleted sendmail and used qmail instead. What I need is approx 2 gig of server space outside of Australia as Australia has limited bandwidth.

No need to re-install, infact it would make no difference as sendmail is part of the base install of rh and will install no matter what you do. ( I have fixed this behaviour and removed sendmail from the RH distro and put in qmail, along with some other goodies, will release it soon) I have also made up a simple script to automate the process of installing qmail on redhat using rpms. The rpms and install script can be found on my ftp at ftp.oceania.net I think in the /pub/linux/qmail directory WARNING. The install script will stop and delete sendmail and any dependant packages. these include nmh, exmh, fetchmail Enjoy Kevin

orbs and qmail
Recently, after running qmail for 3 years on our primary mail server, we found ourselves listed on orbs. It seems we were acting as an open relay and that many mailers were simply bouncing mail from our domain. I made a check of the server and all was well but when I checked it from the facility at abuse.net I found it was reporting an open relay. The problem it seems stems from qmails handling of one of the tests has qmail accepting the mail and dealing with it internally, so that probably ever qmail server will eventually end up listed on orbs, with an incorrectly assumed open relay. But we needed action quickly as users were complaining so we had to switch our primary server to sendmail, to avoid any confusion. Now, if Orbs are incorrectly listing services perhaps we here need to follow up with our legal people. Kind regards Kevin Waterson
