FYI: http://cr.yp.to/qmail/dist.html says:

    "...I hereby place the qmail package (in particular,
qmail-1.03.tar.gz, with MD5 checksum 622f65f982e380dbe86e6574f3abcb7c)
into the public domain. "

I've been using it for more than two years on a (FreeBSD6) server with
*zero* problems. I admit I had to actually *read* a little before I
deployed it, but it has been flawless since.
