Instead, download and install netqmail 1.05 from www.qmail.org, which has a small set of patches that really work. I've been meaning to make a port of netqmail, but haven't had time yet. You'll also want daemontools and ucspi-tcp. For both of those, the ports are OK. Haven't tried the port of vpopmail, but the port has a disconcertingly large number of patches that it silently applies. R's, John
