That's good to know Jack, thanks. Many of us simply use the stock SM and are
unaware of these considerations.
FWIW, I consider this to be a downside of plugins, not of an upgrade script.
This problem exists regardless of whether you use an upgrade script or not,
and is only a problem when you use plugins.
I expect that it'd be possible to add an extension to qtp-newmodel that
would search out and remove any SM plugins prior to upgrading it. It'd be
nice to have a script for installing various plugins too. That would make a
nice addition to the qmailtoaster-plus package if someone's inclined to
write it. Any takers?
