One (actually 2) patch to rule them all.. and bring qmail to the current 
century. So does your current MTA support SPF/DomainKeys without a 
milter/policy_daemon? This one does..
http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/combined.shtml

The original qmail may no longer be maintained, but it is still rock 
solid and quite efficient.. and a few patches do bring it to the level 
of a sendmail/postfix/exim.. plus as Res adds "show a product that 
compares to qmail virtual domains".

2 coins..
