A little bit of history doesn't hurt so here goes: Netqmail is a patchset meant to fix the few bugs encountered in Qmail. It was initially provided as a patch that the end-user required to apply to the original Qmail sources due to license limitations. Qmail was forbidden to be redistributed in any other form than the original sources. It was the end-users responsibility if Qmail was patched and something broke. Since DJB released Qmail from it's license, making it public domain, the Netqmail package was changed into the current version with the patchset already applied. In this sense there is not much of a difference between the sources of Qmail 1.03 with the Netqmail 1.05 patch applied and Netqmail 1.06. Just unpack Netqmail 1.06 and apply Bill's combined patch.
