 welcome to
 The qmailrocks.org qmail Installation guide
 for FreeBSD

As it is now, I've split the FreeBSD qmail installation up into 20 sections which are listed below. Simply start at step 1and follow it all the way to completion. By the time you reach step 20, you should have a smokin' qmail installation of qmail blazing away on your server.

For a quick look at what this installation will provide you with, click here.

Before You Start! - When installing qmail, I would STRONGLY reccomend that you first conduct a test installation on a test server if you have one available. I cannot stress this enough. If you're new to qmail, chances are you will probably screw the install up the first time through. Do yourself a favor and screw up on a test server that has no importance to you! I had to learn this the hard way. ;)
