Yeah, I don't understand at all what Kenneth is asking as well.
Agreed, Jake, that the Bernstein license is the biggest deterrent to
releasing an ISO or turnkey appliance of Qmail, but as you said, the
existing installation scripts already do a great job with automating
the process.
I wonder if someone could fork Qmail at one point, under a different
license, and bypass this problem completely?

Sorry if I'm not up on the lingo (or am just misunderstanding....).
Are you asking to build an ISO to run under VMware for QMail? I
thought of building an ISO installer, but the issue that stops me
is D. Bernstein's license... He does not allow QMail to be
distributed in binary format - only source code. I know, could have
it build during install, but that adds time to the install, and
with the scripts everyone has already released to install it it
hasn't been high on my side-project list.
Or are you asking for something different?
