eQmail - Questions and suggestions

Kai,

Now that I have eQmail going on my newly installed Fedora 22 system, I
would like to investigate the advantages of the patches that have been
added.

It would useful for me (and I presume, other people) to have a little
more detail about the patches on the web site:

https://blog.dyndn.es/doku.php?id=blog:2014:10:18_eqmail_1.08

- maybe a short paragraph on each patch about what it does and why it is
wothwhile having it in the code?

Also, some of the English on the web page could be improved a little. I
am happy to help with any corrections and additions if you like?

I have now put back my (unsupported) greylite layer but maybe I should
be considering looking at using a qmail-spp plugin instead?

Regards,

Phil.

I'm open for new ideas anytime. A bit to the background:

The web site (article) was based of my personal documentation. I did
improve it a bit before publishing. The patches itself are more or less
well documented through the web. I did assume that all the folks on this
list are familiar with it - maybe I'm wrong ;-). My vision is to
reanimate qmail and maybe eQmail could be the core. Nevertheless any
improvement is a step forward.

This would be a great advantage to me! Any help is really welcome. Maybe
we can do it not through the list? Do you agree? I won't change one
sentence a day.

I assume that greylite still works, or?

Yes, I understand that the web site is very idiosyncratic (and that is a
good thing!) but it seems that it has been just what I was looking for
too - so maybe there are others that will find it useful as well if we
could continue to enhance it?

Yes, talking about that stuff off this list will be better.

Yep, it takes out he bulk of the rubbish - I haven't put the
qmail-qfilter + Ruby stuff back yet - I will investigate the plugin
options in the new environment first.

Thanks!
