Get off your soapbox. I offered an alternative suggestion, and even warned him of the qmail mailing list.
I disagreed vehemently with the suggestion. I am very competent as a user and a fair shake as a sysadmin... and qmail, qmail-users, and several individual qmail users I know are all just plain nasty, hostile, and difficult to deal with. That's fine if it's your cup of tea and you have the knowledge to handle it. However, it is NOT, repeat NOT, what I would recommend to someone who is just starting out and can't even modify sendmail to accept remote SMTP connections.
Alternatives are a great thing... I'm currently learning postfix myself, and I've run a qmail-based system for over a year. It's just my personal opinion, after having been forced to endure that year and having to deal with qmail's many related idiosyncracies and idiocies, that your alternative... well, sucks.
