It's not so much frightful, but think back to when you first installed it...
Not being a qmail user beforehand, I had to work in no less than 4 patches to make qmail "modern"... SSL, Auth, tarpitting and bouncecontrol. Maybe others :) And then you've got the various inter7 and courier packages. All in all, there's really quite a period of time where you've got to get familiar with 4 or 5 complex pieces of software at once and understand how they interact with each other. I'm about to make the move to the latest vpopmail, sqwebmail, and courier-imap. I need to document better this time. Is there anyone who would be interested in working on a pop-toaster mega-faq? The thing I've found lacking is not the individual docs themselves, but something that covers the "big picture" better.
