there is a relief: s/qmail.

The first *beta* version of s/qmail (2.14.13) is available.


The code is now stable and almost complete:

- IPv6 integration
- TLS for all communication modules
- Authentication …

There are, however, some rough edges which need to get done in the near future:

* no real documentation yet (though s/qmail comes with comprehensive man pages)
* X.509 wildcard cert support untested yet
* qmail-tcpto untested for IPv6
* …

All local delivery qmail plug-ins are expected to work for s/qmail unaltered.

However, patches in particular for qmail-remote and qmail-smtpd will probably fail and may not lead to the desired results.


Please have a look here:

I welcome everybody to join the beta program and inscribe to my s/qmail mailing list.


Best regards.
