hi > so I want to upgrade mail-transport-agent from exim to qmail
replacing equivalent packages is easy when they are complied and distributed as such but qmail is a problem I know of two approaches: leave apt thinking exim is installed and just delete exim by hand, then compile + install qmail or build a dummy package with equivs that provides mta, so that apt will uninstall exim say qmail is installed - then you just compile and install qmail however I havent managed to get apt to accept my dummy package instead of exim Neil _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
