I'd suggest that you do that via a minor modification to the existing
email config panel.

That means that your panel script is not setuid root, which means that you
are not building the file list in your RPM using genfilelist (from
e-smith-devtools).

Some comments:
- There's no QMail, only qmail.
- You shouldn't be writing another script which expands the template for
/var/service/smtpfront-qmail/runenv, you should be reusing the one which
already exists (mailfront-conf-env) via a symlink in your event directory.
This point becomes moot if you re-use the existing panel and its event
directory (email-update).
- I wouldn't bother to change the port which smtpfront-qmail listens on.
I'd just set up a port forward from the alternative port to port 25. That
way your LAN clients can still do SMTP on the standard port, and you won't
need to restart the smtpfront TCP listener. Note that I'm not sure whether
it's possible using the current portforwarding package to portforward to a
port local to the server. If not, then you'll need to change the
portforwarding package to make that possible.
