Hi Tim,

Many folks have a problem with the license to qmail....I don't.  I
went to a site:
qmailrocks.org
and downloaded everything that I needed, had it configured, and up and
running in several hours by following the explicit and well writtten
instructions on the site. The installation included: a pop server,
qmail, spamasssassin, clam-anti-virus, squirrellmail (web mail), some
web based admin tools, and log analyzers.  The only times that I had
problems was when I didn't read carefully.  Its straightforward and
bottom line, it works just fine.
