Lee, qmail is in the ports of FreeBSD and it is certainly usable/buildable
on every platform, as you can build from source as I do, every time I build
a server, as well as Yahoo, ebay, paypal, Ohio State Univ, Rediffmail (22
million subscribers), etc... I think even Gmail is using a hacked up version
of qmail also..

Steve just dislikes djb stuff, and many do.. Just like politics... hee, hee
