1 Caution

    1.1	when you receive a mail

    The address rewriting rule of qmail differs a lot from other MTA's.

    Let your account be "fml" and domain is "fml.org". You can extend your
    address. This is called "extension address".  You can run fml at the
    address "fml-elena@fml.org" by using ~fml/.qmail-elena file.

    If you want to use "elena@fml.org" not fml-elena sytle, you have to do
    add a few configurations.

    ~/.forward of sendmail corresponds to ~/.qmail. /var/qmail/alias is
    similar to /etc/aliases of sendmail. Please see manuals and
    http://www.qmail.org/ for more details.

    1.2	in distribution of ML articles

    fml connnects to MTA via SMTP, so you need RELAYCLIENT configuration
    of qmail as follows.  See QMAIL FAQ and the manula of "qmail-smtpd" at
    the first.

    Let us consider inetd csse. You should modify /etc/inetd.conf to be
    that "RELAYCLIENT is null string when SMTP from localhost to disable
    rcpthosts in /etc/inetd.conf".

    * inetd.conf example:

    smtp stream tcp nowait qmaild /usr/libexec/tcpd	/var/qmail/bin/tcp-env /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd

    * After rewrite inted.conf, send the HUP signal to inetd.
       % kill -HUP `cat /var/run/inetd.pid`

    * Set RELAYCLIENT be null when SMTP from localhost.

    tcp-env: 10.0.0.1, 127.0.0.1: setenv = RELAYCLIENT
    tcp-env: ALL
