Now don't get me wrong, qmail is also a great product. But qpsmtpd
being tied to it in such a way limits its use.
There isn't anything in "core qpsmtpd" that's tied to qmail.
I think qpsmtpd would be much more versatile if it was a completely
separate and independent program. And it didn't rely on numerous
qmail configuration files
You can make a configuration plugin to support whatever configuration
format you want. :-)
Well, yes... And no. You see, I'm in the process of learning Perl but am
not at the point yet that I can write such plugins.
or on things like daemontools.
See qpsmtpd-forkserver.
On a low traffic system it should also be possible to run qpsmtpd from
(x)inetd.
Yeah, I did see that. I chose the preferred method as indicated on the
website (or as I perceived anyway).
Currently, we're only working with a few hundred emails a day. But why
put together a system that doesn't scale well? Hence, I decided on
daemontools.
And as near as I could tell, (x)inetd is no longer supported--is that
not correct? http://wiki.qpsmtpd.org/inetd
