If you need a binary package for your system's native package manager, and querying it returns nothing, maybe someone can pipe up here. What's your Linux and package manager?

If you need a binary package for an Ubuntu- or EL-derived system and are willing to add a third-party package manager to do so, I'd suggest installing a binary qmail package built from pkgsrc. I believe pkgsrc.joyent.com has Linux qmail binaries and the docs there ahould lead you to the right repository.

If you're looking to build from source yourself, but with a little automation help, pkgsrc is excellent for that too, and of course you'll get finer-grained control over compile-time options. This is what I do for my own (non-Linux) server.

If you get stuck with anything pkgsrc-related, feel free to contact me off-list.

Hi John,

most of the modern qmail replacements (eQmail or my s/qmail) are 64bit save.

Crypto-routines are sensitive regarding bit-evaluation and depend on correct casting
while they are sensitive to the given hardware platform.

You could use my

qmail patch with is AM64 save ... but rather go for a coherent implementation.

Regards.
