qmail install

[John Albee]

The readme for qmailwebmin states that it is setup for the default
installation.  If this refers to the instructions that come with the qmail
tar.gz then it will definitly make this whole thing more interesting to say
the least.  I guess I'm going to be doing some reading tonight.  I'm just
glad that once I understood BIND it became somewhat easy. Im no where close
to understanding Qmail yet.  BTW, my goal is to have this setup by tommorow
night if I can manage.
