Subject: RE: Patch for qmail-qmqpc
Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2001 23:46:37 -0600 

Here you go:

####################################################################
# This patch makes qmail-qmqpc randomly choose servers from your
# /var/qmail/control/qmqpservers file instead of picking the first
# available server.  It can handle 255 servers, but is easily 
# modified to support more.
# 
# Patch by Jay Austad - austad@marketwatch.com
# Usage: put this file in your qmail directory and do:
# patch <qmail-qmqpc-randomLB-0.1.patch
