I'm on Martin's side.  The documentation is plenty enough to get
qmail up and running.  Having just read some docs on sendmail, I can
testify that it is well documented.  Trouble is that all those docs
don't make it any simpler.  Its still a can of worms.

I find the combination of qmail and fetchmail unbeatable.
