      well i guess u should follow these steps ....
      it has not scrwd ur rpm database ...
      If you read qfd.cpp you will understand it ...
      --------------------------------------------------
      1)  rpm -e --nodeps qmail
      2)  rpm -e --nodeps qmail-autoresponder
      3)  rpm -e --nodeps mess822
      4)  rpm -e --nodeps supervise-scripts
      5)  /bin/cp /usr/lib/inittab /etc/inittab
      6)  rpm -e --nodeps daemontools
      7)  rpm -e --nodeps ucspi-unix
      8)  rpm -e --nodeps ucspi-tcp
      9)  rpm -e --nodeps bglibs
      10) cd /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/
      11)  ln -s ../init.d/sendmail S80sendmail
      12) cd /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/
      13) ln -s ../init.d/sendmail S80sendmail

      thats it ....
      but any ways if u do a reinstall with the latest stable version ( without removing old packages ) your rpm db will be intact...
