installing qmail under debian:
- just install qmail-src (using apt-get/dpkg/dselect), it won't conflict with exim
- same with ucspi-tcp-src and if you need serialmail-src
- run build-qmail, you will get a debian package which you can install as I discribed in my last mail (see above)
- same with ucspi-tcp and serialmail
