hey there

ive kinda made a messy pile of rubbish when trying to install qmail, then postfix.

how do i make sure qmail is COMPLETELY OFF MY COMPUTER? then i guess i need to make sure the postix
partial install is off before i continue so how do i make sure postfix is COMPLETELY GONE?

after umerging qmail and a reboot, when svscan rolled around on default runlevel, it spews hundreds of endless messages about
qmail files being gone....

any help would be very great.
thanks
troy

well i did a rc-updat show and i didnt see qmail in there...
looks like it gets started in the svscan

is there a tool for scrubbing your box of any mail handler?

or are there places i can just go and delete all the qmail files?
