I am not suggesting you should, Matthias. Matěj 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.

Doug.
