a shot using eg. netqmail + qmail-scanner.
Best,
No, I think you missed the point of the article. It's trying to say
that you retain copyright like a sticky booger. Merely saying 'this
stuff is in public domain now' is not enough to make it so.
Strangely, it appears that you have no right put something in the

free-as-in-beer software?

No.
In ports yes, in base no.
I don't see any advantage switching from sendmail to qmail.
...and yes, i know qmail. It was the first mailserver i get in touch

I agree. Please do not remove sendmail. it is the most advanced
opensourced mailer,
I do strongly prefer it.

In case it's needed (which I doubt), I'll voice my VERY strongly

qmail has a seperate set of problems beyond its license.
That being said, its really easy to install qmail yourself and have it
replace the in-tree sendmail (see mailer.conf).
