This title fills crucial gaps in existing documentation, detailing exactly what the core qmail software does. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description qmail has quietly become one of the most widely used applications on the Internet today. Its powerful enough to handle mail for systems with millions of users--Like Yahoo! Mail and Hotmail, while remaining compact and manageable enough for the smallest Unix- and Linux-based PC systems. Its component design makes it easy to extend and customize while keeping its key functions secure, so its no wonder that adoption of qmail continues at a rapid pace. The downside? Apparently none. Except that qmails unique design can be disorienting to those familiar with other popular MTAs (Mail Transfer Agents). If youre coming from sendmail, for instance, you might have trouble recasting your problems and solutions in qmail terms. qmail first helps you establish a "qmail frame of mind," then explores the installation, configuration, administration, and extension of this powerful MTA.
