Overly complex? Yeah, well, qmail is most likely overly complex for what you want to do. This is just a rant, and will likely start some flavor of a holy war, but my experiences with qmail is its much more complex to get setup- and for most people, postfix or exim is likely an easier choice. On the topic of xinetd- what services do you run that require some sort of *inetd service? Most every server or workstation I set up, every service that would use it gets turned off, so I just dont even bother to start it.
