From what you've said above, I would suggest you get the latest (7.10) 
combined patch[1] and install from his instructions using the various 
run scripts[2].

  2: <https://qmail.jms1.net/scripts/>

Surprisingly (or not so) that combined set has served me well. The only 
change I've added is some TLS options to prevent SSL2[3].

Using John's patches will at least get you a good stable system with 
minimal effort.
