Hello everyone.  I've never written the qmail list before yesterday,
though I know of many of you: My own fork of qmail contains the
following patches, and I know some of you here are also list subscribers:

    Jonathan de Boyne Pollard's any-to-cname
    Tom Clegg's badmailfrom wildcard
    Christopher K. Davis's oversize DNS packet
    Johannes Erdfelt's big-concurrency
    John Simpson's DKIM
    Erwin Hoffmann's smptauth
    Erwin Hoffmann's recipients extension
    Jeremy Kitchen's badmailfrom-x-relayclient
    Russell Nelson's big-todo
    Andr=E9 Opperman's ext_todo or "silly qmail syndrome"
    Andrew Richards' qmail-logmsg
    John Saunders' qmail-smtpd-newline
    Jana Saout's qmail-spf
    Frederik Vermeulen's qmail-smtp-tls

Most but not all of these patches I've created branches for in notqmail:

    https://github.com/notqmail/notqmail/wiki/Patches

Not all of them are intended to be merged to notqmail master, but
each of them has helped me work through a problem in my mail
system, and I find it quite a lot easier to work with them as a
set or collection via git.

I'm happy to maintain additional patch branches if you have material
you use that isn't on my own list.

Thank you Felix for your kind words, and thank you everyone for your
work on and help with qmail over the years.
