I am not suggesting you should, Matthias.  MatÄj asked me why my distro
was still using xinetd.  The simple answer is, because you wrote it
that way.  No criticism was intended.

I don't know if I could write a service file that works.  The service
file provided in the rspamd download doesn't work on my system, and my
edits have been unsuccessful.  I can't promise any more for leafnode.

Regards,

Doug.
