Not fair with qmail

Not fair with qmail

Surely the author has never read about qmailrocks (http://www.qmailrocks.org). It includes all the patches needed for making qmail a modern MTA, such as Exim or Postfix. There are some other patches (most notably John Simpson's all-in-one qmail patch) which add many other nice features such as IPv6 (which the author says qmail doesn't have in any form), SPF and my others.

I would recommend the author to investigate a little bit more about qmail and he'll write a totally different thing about qmail.

Quite fair. Check the comments... I remember about 3 posts mentioned some cool patches for qmail. Which the author admits too, there are patches. *Patches*. Unlike the competition (Exim, Postfix), it's not *included* in the actual software, but *only* available as patches.
