In the directory ftp://moni.msci.memphis.edu/pub/qmail/ you find 1) qmail binary distributions in var-qmail/. README.var-qmail tells you more. 2) qmail-run packages in qmail-run/. README.qmail-run tells you more. In particular, the tarball qmail-run-4.tar.gz obsoletes qmail-initscripts (please update www.qmail.org). The var-qmail and qmail-run rpms *together* should properly upgrade the so called "memphis" rpm. 3) tcpserver-initscripts in qmail-run/. Keith Burdis was kind enough to show me how to include sshd. 4) qmail sources with patches in qmail-patch/. This directory contains a kit that creates a spec file which then builds qmail with the patches you selected. Presently, you can choose from 5 patches: rbl, verh, qmqpc, dns (by Scott Schwartz), big-todo. But you can easily add more once you understood my primitive kit. The rpm in var-qmail was also made with this kit. Obviously, no binary rpms in this directory. Read README.qmail-patch for details. Any feedback on how these patched rpms work is appreciated. Our Linux lab (running qmail and mini-qmail) got replaced by NT boxes, and our department's main qmail mailserver's load will be transferred our Univ's new Netscape MTA. Hence I have much less room to test. 5) rblsmtpd, checkpassword and friends are in qmail-addons/. Those people who are frustrated that my site accepts only 10 simultaneous ftp logins should consider mirroring. I do not know how long the load on our network will be tolerated (in the month of July, just the qmail src rpm alone was downloaded by more than 2000 different sites). 6) Keith: when you have time, please update your notes on the installation of the memphis rpm. It changed completely (though the endproduct is the same.) 7) Somebody sent me an improvement for the functions rpm, but I lost it. Could you send it to me again?
