Subject: Qmail + Vpopmail


Hi, im trying to change a server from linux to freebsd. All things are going
really smoothly except for email services.
The linux box is runing qmail+vpopmail+qmailadmin and i need to get the same
system on FreeBSD 4.8R

so i have to get qmail + vpopmail + qmailadmin + imap services + pop 3
services + webmail
in a optimal cenario  i should also get some kind of relay protection and
spam control

i dont have much experience with qmail, so i installed it right from the
ports, same thing for vpopmail
i also issued a command at the end of qmail port instalation (i dont recall
now) that added sendmail_enable="NONE" to /etc/rc.conf and changed
/etc/mail/mailer.conf to use qmail

like vpopmail uses maildir i copy /var/qmail/boot/maildir to /var/qmail/rc
and chmoded it to 550
also i uncomment a line in inetd referring to qmail

rebooted my system

#1 question - is all the pieces of qmail actually runing?

ps -aux | grep mail
qmails  6624  0.0  0.1   948  572  p1- I     2:29AM   0:00.11 qmail-send
qmaill  6625  0.0  0.1   896  528  p1- I     2:29AM   0:00.10 splogger qmail
root    6626  0.0  0.1   896  484  p1- I     2:29AM   0:00.10 qmail-lspawn
./Ma
qmailr  6627  0.0  0.1   896  536  p1- I     2:29AM   0:00.00 qmail-rspawn
qmailq  6628  0.0  0.1   884  448  p1- I     2:29AM   0:00.00 qmail-clean

#2 question - can i copy the /var/qmail/control files from the linux box to
the freebsd and also the directory structure of /home/vpopmail/domain
(linux) to /home/local/vpopmail/domain (FreeBSD) ?

#3 question - can i stick to inetd or shoud i change to djb tcpserver? Where
can i find good information about tcpserver?

#4 question - what pop3 and imap4 MUA should i use, regarding the fact that
i'm using maildirs located in /usr/local/vpopmail/domain/ ?

#5 question - how can i implement some kind of relaying control mechanism
(preferrely SMTP AUTH) cause all my customers are roaming users?

$6 question - can i use squirrelmail or i have to stick with sqwebmail ?
