Hi All,
I am a system administrator using qmail toaster for few years. The
installation, configuration and everything is going without any pain.
But I am having desire to understand things properly. We are using
several packages for a perfect server setup. I just wanted to know the
roles and responsibilities of each packages. I searched in the
internet and found the following details.
zlib -- general purpose compression library
daemontools-toaster -- we can back up our physical CD/DVD discs into
"virtual discs" (Not sure)
ucspi-tcp-toaster -- tcpserver and tcpclient are easy-to-use
command-line tools for building TCP client-server applications.
vpopmail-toaster -- to manage virtual email domains email accounts on
your qmail or Postfix mail server.
libdomainkeys-toaster -- The source code for the latest libdomainkeys
implementation
libsrs2-toaster -- SRS library from the original designer of SRS. It
implements the Sender Rewriting Scheme
qmail-toaster -- ??
courier-authlib-toaster -- set of programs which handle authenticating
login requests from the IMAP and POP3 services
courier-imap-toaster -- Courier-IMAP provides IMAP access to Maildir
mailboxes.
autorespond-toaster -- Autorespond is autoresponder/vacation type tool
that works well with vdelivermail and qmailadmin.
control-panel-toaster -- ??
ezmlm-toaster -- An easy-to-use and high-speed mailing list manager
qmailadmin-toaster -- software package that provides a web interface
for managing a qmail system with virtual domains.
qmailmrtg-toaster -- Log to Graph generator
maildrop-toaster -- Maildrop reads a mail message from standard
input/file then delivers the message to your mailbox.
isoqlog-toaster -- is an MTA log analysis program written in C. It
designed to scan qmail, postfix, sendmail and exim logfile and produce
usage statistics in HTML
squirrelmail-toaster -- Provides webmail access
spamassassin-toaster -- Open Source mail filter, written in Perl, to
identify spam using a wide range of heuristic tests on mail headers
and body text
clamav-toaster -- Clam AntiVirus is an open source (GPL) anti-virus
toolkit for UNIX, designed especially for e-mail scanning on mail gateways
ripmime-toaster -- to extract attachments out of a MIME encoded email
packages.
simscan-toaster -- Simscan is a simple program that enables the qmail
smtpd service to reject viruses, spam, and block attachments during
the SMTP conversation
vqadmin-toaster -- vqadmin is a web based control panel that allows
system administrators to perform actions which require root access for
example, adding and deleting domains. The cgi is authenticated using
Apache style htpasswd files.
Can anyone just correct this if i am wrong? Also what is
daemontools-toaster is used for? What is the difference between
vpopmail-toaster, vqadmin-toaster, qmailadmin-toaster and
control-panel-toaster.
Sorry for this much basic questions.. Thanks a ton in advance..
Thanks and Regards,

You're looking at the Windows Daemon Tools. daemontools-toaster is like
SysV Init, sort of. It manages the running qmail processes and restarts
them if there is an error. Think "service named restart", but with a
checker that monitors the process and if it dies, restarts it.
qmail-toaster is the actual qmail code, patched and compiled to provide
SMTP and POP3 service.
control-panel-toaser is the web framework you get when you go to
http://your-toaster/admin-toaster
vpopmail-toaster is the vpopmail package, which handles the virtual
users and other mailbox functions. vqadmin is a web app that allows you
to create, edit, delete, etc. domains from the vpopmail database.
qmailadmin-toaster is the web interface used to manage a domain - you
see this when you go to http://your-toaster/qmailadmin
