It's not a supported on included part of qmail, which has not been |
| 6 |
modified in a number of years. The functionality is provided only |
| 7 |
via unofficial patches. |

I agree that it is pretty critical, however that is not the opinion |
| 10 |
of the software author (or if it is, he hasn't chosen to integrate |
| 11 |
it with the main distribution for whatever reason). Many people |
| 12 |
are still quite happily using vanilla qmail with relayctrl |
| 13 |
providing pop-before-smtp style relay access. So, though I do rely |
| 14 |
on it, it's an add-on feature that many opt not to use. |
