I apologize in advance if this is FAQ, but what is the "correct" way to upgrade from qmail to postfix? snoopy# dpkg --no-act -i postfix_0.0.19990601-3_i386.deb Selecting previously deselected package postfix. dpkg: regarding postfix_0.0.19990601-3_i386.deb containing postfix: postfix conflicts with mail-transport-agent qmail provides mail-transport-agent and is installed. dpkg: error processing postfix_0.0.19990601-3_i386.deb (--install): conflicting packages - not installing postfix Errors were encountered while processing: postfix_0.0.19990601-3_i386.deb Last time, when I installed qmail, I manually removed all programs that depended on sendmail, then removed sendmail, installed qmail, and reinstalled all my mail programs again.
