Re: Re: help - convert sendmail to qmail

This is not quite accurate, but very close. Qmail comes with a wrapper (in /var/qmail/bin/sendmail, or in the bin directory of wherever you installed Qmail) that emulates sendmail nicely.

I'm not sure what you mean. All you have to do is put a symlink in place of the normal sendmail binary that points to /var/qmail/bin/sendmail, e.g., mv /usr/bin/sendmail ~/sendmail.old ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/bin/sendmail (or wherever you have sendmail installed; some distros have it in /usr/sbin). All will then work nicely, without changing anything else relating to sendmail.	[reply]
