So, what exactly "Broke" when you implemented Spamdyke? I also have a couple Qmailrocks mail servers running Spamdyke. I've not had any issues.
If I remember correctly, there may be some different paths used in QMR versus some other "Standard" Qmail installations. If you can give more details as to what isn't working w/Spamdyke installed, IE, what's "Broken", it might help resolve the issue. Or, you could change your mail server to QmailToaster (qmailtoaster.com), which is an ISO that is a complete Qmail mail server, with Spamdyke, the chkuser patch, and a bunch of other "Standard" stuff. VERY user friendly for newbie's, and a very supportive community mailing list. QMR is outdated, not really supported anymore, and just has some "quirks" when using it... I used it for years, but I found it was time to move on, but wanted to stay with Qmail. QMT was a perfect choice... Michael J.
