That tutorial is getting a bit dated. It was written for v0.27. These
days would recommend using forkserver (which was added in 0.28) instead
of xinetd.

I have started a new tutorial specifically for the RPM packages at
http://wiki.qpsmtpd.org/rpm-install_howto
That still needs some work, though.

I think this particular section is still up-to-date. But then you don't
say anything about how you run qpsmtpd. Via xinetd (as suggested in the
tutorial) or daemon-tools? qpsmtpd or qpsmtpd-forkserver?
