I wanted to express my gratitude to schmonz@ for his remarkable work in patching, modernizinig and cleaning up qmail/netqmail, with particular regard for his acceptutils/rejectutils, which coupled with a set of wrappers for Guenter's qmail-qfilter, as well as procmail, qmail-viruscan, an SPF plugin and spamfilters, eventually result in a modern and fully-fledged MTA.
Setting up a working server with the qmail-run meta-package didn't require more than few minutes, it's well documented, and, at least in my opinion, very straightforward. I've been self-hosting this retroish home mail server (unbound + qmail + uw-imap/inetd + spamassassin + squirrelmail), for about 6 months now, on a RPi3 Model B running NetBSD(HEAD)/evbarm64; also, relying on the NPF + blacklistd combo: I must say I'm really satisfied with my setup so far, very stable, good performance with the aarch64 SMP (and a bit of overclocking), predictably very low power-consumption, and no significant issue to report as of today. I take my chance to state that I would really appreciate notqmail's checkpassword being patched for blacklistd, the way postfix' smtp-auth was. Also, BPFjit on evbarm64 would be great, but I understand it may require some time. Thanks you all guys for the good work you've been doing lately, Kindest regards, pvo
