Those instructions don't look koha-specific and also seem to have some
risky practices like downloading unsigned tarballs. Using one of the
various qmail packages (like netqmail or qmail-ldap) is probably
simpler, but I'm reminded of this quote from debian ftpmaster Joerg
Jaspert:-
"And then there is the question if such a piece of software should really
go into Debian. There are *way* better MTAs out there that dont need
tons of patches applied just to fulfill basic requirements for a MTA."

Please, only install qmail if you really want it and are sure that you
have dealt with the spam backscatter and silly error message problems.
Scarred,
