You could install a current linux ISO (kernel >3.10 I think) with 
docker, then install qmail in a docker container, which might be one of 
the better ways if you want to start and tear down regularly if you're 
experimenting:

  $ sudo docker search qmail
  ...
  secopstech/mini-qmail
  ...

Personally, I'd make the docker image retrieve and apply the patches 
that I wanted if I was going to go down this route. qmail is worth the 
effort upfront, a container approach would also help you, especially if 
you wanted to create some Dockerfiles for your own large infrastructure 
(mailbox vs mailhub) setup.
