Problems: you need to have subscriber lists which qmail likes (meaning,
strip=yes, not always palatable). And you have an open hole through which
one can mail stuff to your list without going through resend's checks.
Also, you need to give qmail a "paternalism" setting of mode 000 because
(on some systems at least) you can't make symlinks go-w, so qmail goes
"uhoh, .qmail writeable". With my script you get verps automatically too,
it's just a command-line argument to qmail-inject.
