we should keep all packages from qmailtoaster for easier support, I
have been caught with something and didn't have time to read about
packaging deb files, anyhow I'm determined to do it as soon as I have
time for it
As I see it, the level of support doesn't change much if we use packages
that already exist.
My current list of packages that are already in Debian via APT:
libsrs2, daemontools, ucspi-tcp, clamav, spamassassin,
courier-authlib, courier-imap, maildrop, autorespond, isoqlog, djbdns,
squirrelmail
This leaves these packages to be ported, unless the QmailToaster
packages that have a correspondent in Debian have something that the
Debian packages don't:
vpopmail, libdomainkeys, qmail, ripmime, simscan, ezmlm,
qmail-admin, qmailmrtg
and on my low priority list:
vqadmin, control-panel
Personally I don't quite see the point of porting packages that already
exist in the distribution. Especially when that list is longer than the
list of packages not in the distro.
If you really want to keep them all in one place, of course, nobody can
stop you from doing that, but I would use the packages from the distro
still when making my package collection rather than porting them from
QmailToaster (which is extra work that has already been done, or so I
see it).
