You're confused by Linux'isms ;-)

Try to get this:

http://pc89225.stofanet.dk/qmail-install.tar.gz

It has some *very* terse instructions on how to accomplish what you
want, and I'd really apreciate feedback on it, I think it's portable
across tha BSD's.

Just download it, unpack it and read the INSTALL.qmail.txt file.

You have probably already done some of it.

HTH, HAND
