For the uninitiated, I suggest reading the OpenBSD thread between Theo and DJB
over Theo's decision to drop qmail from packages to avoid violating djb's
license, which resulted in djb complaining that they were dropping his mailer.
Go figure.
My preference these days is Postfix - If you want details as to my preference,
go back through the archives for my last grand flame against qmail. I'm sure
all the old-timers are sick of this argument. Certainly, I will maintain
that if you want to use qmail on a mailhub, you must be insane.
