We need a qmail 1.04.  The instructions in INSTALL are out of date.
People should be told to use ucspi-tcp and daemontools.  The software
is fine.  It's just the documentation that needs to change.  As
always, I'm happy to do the work, if Dan is too busy.

Why am I so adament that qmail-1.04 MUST be released?  To reduce
support costs and help people more quickly.  A potential customer sent
me the following question:

   Is there any way or any command by which i can mannually push all
   the mails to required destination which r there in the queue.

Of course it's a FAQ, but I would really *really* like to tell him
``Just do this: svc -a /service/qmail''.  I can't do that, though,
because not everyone installs qmail that way.  Instead, I have to tell 
him "You have to send an alarm signal to qmail-send."  And he has to
figure out how to do that on his system.
