File README.SUSE of Package netqmail
This is a highly non-standard qmail installation. Therefore, please direct
questions and/or bugreports to the package owner, NOT to D. J. Bernstein
and NOT to the qmail mailing list!
Modifications include:
* different installation layout to meet FHS requirements (see /var/lib/qmail)
* different users + groups
* various patches:
+ qmail-spp plugin mechanism
+ STARTTLS support by F. Vermeulen
+ qmtpd bugfix
+ handling of non 2xx responses during HELO/EHLO
+ support for VERH (for ezmlm)
+ support for sending mail via IPv6
* support for DKIM via perl's Mail::DKIM (see /etc/qmail/dkim for details)
* LSB-compliant (more or less) SysV init scripts
OR systemd-compatible services on openSUSE >= 12.0
Before starting netqmail you should do the following:
* Create ~alias/.qmail-root and ~alias/.qmail-postmaster to handle root's and
postmaster's mail. Usually you'll want to forward this to an existing account.
* For every existing user supposed to receive mail locally, create a Maildir
in their home (using /var/lib/qmail/bin/maildirmake).
* Check the configuration in /etc/qmail/control.
