quoting from that file's README.spamcontrol file:
"Since QMAIL by contruction is an OPEN RELAY, some vulnerability may be
experienced not in particular to the QMAIL system itself (which can
stand a heavy load), but for other MTAs which are flooded by
SPAM E-Mail. "
You're kidding, right? qmail is by construction an open relay?? And,
the reason not to be an open relay is because you'll be blocked
because of the spam that (eventually) comes through your site. Spam
is itself not a serious load on anybody's MTA -- not even sendmail.
