hi does qmail-toaster compatibible with DNSSEC? like, when the root zone is signed next year, will qmail-toaster barf at the size of dns-sec records? do i need ot use djbdns or can i still use BIND and will qmail accetp it? I've heard that qmail will die when the root zones and TLD's follow with DNSSEC as the size is not big enough in the code.

thx,

Qmail does not intrerface with DNS directly. It is handled by an underlying system, and only obtain results. Basically it just asks DNS for an answer, and your DNS system (Bind, djbdns, etc.) supplies an answer. DNSSEC will be handled on that level.



This makes me wonder though, as djbdns is not being developed any more to any extent, will it become broken by dnssec? I'm guessing that someone will likely patch djbdns so it's compatible (if it's not already), but it'd be nice if someone would verify this. Personally, I don't use djbdns so I don't really care to find out for myself.
