Thank you very much.

For anyone else anxiously awaiting the answer to that question : )
(and running OpenBSD 2.8 or openbsd-stripped/2.8) with the latest ports
This is what I did today:
bash-2.05# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/daemontools/; make; make install; cd
/usr/ports/net/ucspi-tcp/pkg; make; make install; cd /usr/ports/mail/qmail/;
make; make install&
If you actually stay and watch you should see this:
#----------------
#qmail is installed
#----------------
#qmail does NOT automatically work yet at this point.
#
#To activate qmail, please read /var/qmail/doc/INSTALL
#Steps 1, 2, 3 and 5 have been done by this port/package.
#The config command from step 4 can be found in /var/qmail/setup
#
#It is recommended to use tcpserver instead of inetd for qmail-smtpd
#and/or qmail-pop3d. It is installed as a dependency.
#
#If you want to replace Sendmail on your system, be sure to look
#at mailwrapper(8). Here's a sample /etc/mailer.conf:
#
sendmail /var/qmail/bin/sendmail
send-mail /var/qmail/bin/sendmail
mailq /var/qmail/bin/qmail-qread
# you will need fastforward for newaliases to work
#newaliases /var/qmail/bin/newaliases
hoststat /usr/bin/true
purgestat /usr/bin/true
I definitely missed that the first time I did the ports install. It and man
mailwrapper eventually answered all of my questions.
Thanks again
