Hello, Jack. Sorry it's taken me so long to reply. Just after I first posted, I updated my system, with which libssl-1.1.1w got unmerged. So my qmail stopped working. I've now reinstalled and configured it.

Possibly because it didn't occur to me that --unmerge would work on a package that wasn't properly installed. However, after unmerging it (and two ancient versions of php), @preserved-rebuild worked. :-). So I'm back in action. Thanks very much! -- Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany).
