qmail and SELinux
Hey everyone, I really need some help!! I am a newbie and i have this big project to do with some other people.
You see, i have to configure a secure mail server. For some reason, my teacher said that the server OS should have SELinux, so I installed Fedora Core 3 with the SELinux option on. For my pop/smtp servers i decided to configure Qmail, but then i realized that the installation and configuration of qmail requires that SELinux option to be set off.
I heard qmail is very secure, but, is there something I can do in order to provide my mail server the security policies provided by SELinux? if there is, please let me know, because i don't know what to do, and if there isn't, also let me know, so i can explain to my teacher what it can't be done!!
THANK YOU!!!

I seem to have a lot of problem running anything with SELinux enabled too. Maybe some of the experts down here care to teach?

SeLinux in my opinion is not ready for production use.
