Hi,

the new script qt-install creates a firewall, not suitable, I have disabled
the script.
It would be very good to be asked (at least) , if you really want to be
locked-out if you reboot or logout.

Why is rpmforge still activated? This repo is no longer maintained and
should not be used.

I managed to get the new packages installed manually, it works now.

Some perl- requirements are packaged with qmail-packages (or obsolete when
those packages are installed.)


With best regards

Andreas Galatis

That is severely deprecated. Will someone please update that with this link:
https://github.com/QMailToaster/qmailtoaster-util/blob/master/README.install

See link above.

Suit yourself. If you think you may need more than 4G, use 64bit. 
Otherwise, doesn't matter much.

I use 32 bit on VMs. If you're putting it on 64-bit hardware though, I'd use
the 64-bit version, just in case you want to increase ram.

spamdyke will go a long way toward that. It's part of the stock QMT6 now.

Just the link above. It's really simple now, and quick.

Given how old your vpopmail is, I'd recommend creating the user accounts
manually on the new host (how many do you have?), and then using rsync to
bring over the maildirs. That should work fine.

Let us know if you have any other questions or problems.

Thanks.
