True. I hope to cover this eventually, but it's a little tricky.

Migrating from sendmail to qmail can be pretty painless if it's done
carefully. For example, don't try to pull the plug on sendmail and
switch to qmail+qmail-pop3d at the same time. Consider configuring the
qmail installation to use /var/spool/mail mbox delivery, and use the
same POP daemon you're using with sendmail. You can even run both
sendmail and qmail simultaenously--although only one can handle port
25, and /usr/lib/sendmail will only point to one or the other.

Don't even try. Only use qmail-pop3d if you're using maildir
mailboxes. Otherwise, use whatever POP daemon you're already running.
