Yes, probably, but there is a lot of info packed into Life with qmail that I
don't follow/understand even though it obviously works. 

I do have it printed out for reference, but the way I am thinking (rightly
or wrongly) is if I install the tarballs one at a time and follow the
instructions and try the other notes etc. I will learn it more deeply and
thoroughly.

For me, this is training as opposed to getting something up and running
ASAP.

I just want to go beyond the basic qmail install that I have used on an
internal test machine for a couple of years. I have a external IP and
domain to test and play for real now and have just installed OpenBSD 2.8
onto a clean machine.

Once I'm happy with ucspi-tcp, then daemontools is next although I'd like
APOP going and tested first. After that, djbdns etc. etc. - like I said,
this is going to be a DJBware machine.

Regards...Martin
