I've downloaded, installed qmail-intel-vm-1.4.1.zip, and have it
running in a VM on my AMD box (since the AMD version was 1.3.1).
Through various reading, there is conflicting stories about post
install. I see that binary packages are included now, so I'm guessing
theres no "final steps" to be done, other than changing passwords, and
setting the IP address? Do things update automagically? How are
updates handled for when, lets say, the "1.4.2" or "1.5.1" bundle
comes out? Is qtp-ami-up2date automatically run somewhere? does it
have to be run manually, only from commandline?
Also, a goal of mine is to have everything managed via web. I'm not
seeing any "advanced" options, like abilities to play with
spamassassin, and such from the web. Its probably better that way for
most people...
All in all, a great bundle, thanks Erik... I may be migrating to this
from my old toaster from around 2001 (The FreeBSD based Mail Toaster
(qmail as well) from Matt Simerson). The problem there was upgrading
would tend to break things.. Maybe the later versions of that toaster
are more easily upgradable. But we'll see how QMT upgrades both with
the OS, and the separate components.
The QMT packages are frozen, so there will be no updates other than
clamav and spamassassin. The 1.4 version of QMT (not to be confused
with versions 1.4.x of the ISO/VM) is behind schedule but I'm sure
myself or someone else on the list will write some sort of upgrade
script to bring old systems to the new, current one.
I'm the maintainer of the ISO/VM, and there will be no further updates
on the images on the site either. I will continue to perform updates on
CentQMT5, but these will most likely be Cent package updates for a while.
You are welcome to run qtp-newmodel and update the system (qtp-newmodel
will update the QMT packages, if there are any updates) or 'yum update'
for CentOS packages.
I'll be releasing a package called QControl (qcontrol.v2gnu.com)
tomorrow afternoon that is geared towards managing the system from a web
app. I will update this package from time to time, so if you have
suggestions please email them to the address on the site. I can only
imagine what you mean by "advanced" (which may not be my definition of
advanced as well) so the suggestion method is the best way at this point.
Hopefully that answered all of your questions.
