I know that the default installation is to use exim.
But I would like to use qmail in it's place on at least one server.
My question is this:
Are the dependencies for various email needing packages going to be able
to understand that I'm using qmail instead of exim and still meet the
requirements for an email server? Or am I going to embark on a
dependency struggle from now on?
Pretty much everything that depends on exim accepts mail-transport-agent
as an alternative, unless it has very specialized requirements. If it
doesn't, it's a bug. Since the qmail packages built from qmail-src
provide mail-transport-agent, you should be OK.
