There is a qmail-src 1.03 in potato (unstable) (I think 1.02 in slink /
Debian 2.1). Just do a 'apt-get install qmail-src', 'build-qmail' which
builds the qmail package and then 'dpkg -i qmail' (it's in a tmp
directory). It shouldn't be a problem to use qmail-src 1.03 from potato
with slink. You could also fetch the file by hand and do a 'dpkg -i
qmail-src_1.03-?.deb.

Then you could edit the /etc/init.d/qmail file, because the default is
to use procmail for local delivery. I prefer ./Maildirs and if you use
them, you should also use the qmail-pop3d. There is a line you could
comment out in init.d/qmail to start the qmail-pop3d.
