Does qmail work with mailman ? And does qmail need a pop3 agent such as
qpopper ? I am asking that on the qpopper list as well as asking the WebMin
list if they have a module similar to sendmail's mod for it.


Sendmail, I am learning, is a pain to set up, you cant change the conf file
after it's compiled - you have to compile all of the configurations into it
with m4 - I'm sure that9s a security fix, seems like a kludge though.
