Thanks Brent.
QTP presently uses 2 non-stock repos, rpmforge and qtp. In both cases,
the repos are installed in a disabled state, so they must be manually
enabled when required. This helps to control inadvertently getting
packages from other repos overlaying the base stuff.
I don't think the yum-priorities plugin is really necessary for QMT at
this point. If someone thinks it should be used or would be useful,
please bring it up on the devel list. Otherwise, we'll just keep in mind
that it's out there (to bite us!).
Thanks again.

yum-priorities is a plugin for yum that allows varying priorities to be
set for the various repositories you may be using with your system.
This helps prevent packages from 3rd-party repositories from overwriting
official packages for your distribution.
You have to install it:
yum install yum-priorities
Then make sure yum plugins are enabled by putting a line that says
'plugins=1' in /etc/yum.conf.
Then, in each .repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d, in each [] section, you
can put a 'priority=' line.
Priorities can range from 1 to 99, with lower priority numbers getting
precedence over higher priority numbers.

I'm glad it's working for you.
I don't see any reference to a priority parameter in the yum page. I
seem to remember the man page(s) being a bit obsolete before. Can you
point me to some documentation on this?
Thanks.

Setting priority=1 in the qmailtoaster.repo file fixed it
