We're pleased to announce notqmail 1.09.

notqmail is the collaborative Open Source successor to qmail and netqmail. It begins with stable, compatible, small releases to which existing qmail users can safely update, and aims to become a more extensible, more easily packaged, and more modern Mail Transport Agent suitable for most needs.

qmail's design principles haven't _always_ prevented bugs or holes, nor have they _always_ made adding new functionality easy. But pretty often we get both. And that's why we continue to invest in this codebase.

Project goals that have made particular progress in the 1.09 release:

- Preserve qmail's hard-earned security properties
- Reduce marginal cost of development
- Make packaging easier
- Provide sensible defaults

Some well-known patches have been merged; others will need some adjustment.

It's been almost four years since 1.08. Thanks for your patience. With continued focus on making development safer and faster, our next release will arrive much sooner. Feedback welcome, as always.
