I am a newbie. I know basically fsck all about qmail or anything else.
I pale in comparison to all the Good People(tm) who've helped me here.
Russ, Dave, Charles, Sam, Ken, Peter... and many more. Why did they
help me? Because:

Well... it happened to me. And the remaining braindamage was cured by
the abovementioned d00d3s and many others. Because I did read the FAQ,
and I did post meaningful error messages. That's the one difference
that made all the difference. What do we learn from this? You can be
an asshole, but people will help you with a technical problem if you
play by their rules.

Did I ever express my eternal gratefulness to Jason for adding
killfile capabilities to tmda? THANK YOU, JASON! reply-to set.
