If software doesn't work as documented, it's a bug.

What for? A simple text editor is enough (actually,
"echo foo.example.com > config/me" is sufficient, not even a text editor
is needed). The problem is that the current version of qpsmtpd *ignores*
the config file. No configuration tool will solve this problem. Fixing
the routine which reads the config file will.
