qmail and Solaris

Just wondering if someone has done a HOWTO guide for installing qmail on to
a Solaris system.

I know the current step-by-step will work, but I am curious if there are any
dox specific to Solaris.

..... which mentions the word "solaris" exactly twice.

it is, none the less, the best set of instructions you'll get

the only gotcha is setting up svscan if you use inittab. check the archives
here for more. Or use a conventional /etc/init.d/svsscanctl type script for
controlling it -- again, details in the archives here

Which is exactly the number of times it needs to mention Solaris. The
LWQ works on many varieties of Unix and Linux. The fact it doesn't
sprinkle their names all over the place is irrelevant. Solaris is only
mentioned twice because there are only two places where the standard
LWQ installation requires adjustment specifically for Solaris.
