Excuse me, your mail client is communicating with mine.  Mine is under
DJB's license, which forbids derivative works which are distributed as
anything other than patches to the original.

Now, chances are that your mail client isn't using the same license
(which is forbidden), and I really doubt it's distributed as patches to
qmail.  Yet, by your definition, it communicates with my server, which
makes it a "derivative work".

If you don't like what people are doing with your software, you should
have chosen another license.  I don't think a Windows driver is any more
a part of Windows than Wine is, if done properly.
