No, it really should be MIT licensed ("as per qpsmtpd") to go in the distribution.
There are a few exceptions (only your plugins at a cursory glance), but those are mistakes. :-)
I don't have an issue with my qpsmtpd plugins being changed to state:
=head1 AUTHOR
Copyright 2005 Gordon Rowell <gordonr@gormand.com.au>
This software is free software and may be distributed under the same
terms as qpsmtpd itself.
Though as a distro maintainer, we do have a sizeable issue with license proliferation. It really is a bit of a nightmare when two licenses are almost, but not completely, the same.
Thanks,
Gordon

Patch by Hanno Hecker <hah@uu-x.de>.
Adds the RFC 1893 status codes to the messages which are returned to the
sending client.

By default no flags are set (old behaviour). Known flags for cleanup are
FLAG_FILTER, FLAG_BCC_OK and FLAG_MAP_OK, see POD for details.

qpsmtpd-forkserver. This patch merges Peter's patch (with the possibilty
to DENY/DENSOFT the connection) and my first attempt. The --max-from-ip
check was moved from core to the hosts_allow plugin.

* lib/Qpsmtpd/Connection.pm
Abstract out parameters which can be reused (e.g. TLS) or can be
set when creating the Connection object via start().
* plugins/tls
Simplify code to use $self->clone() construct and also suppress
IO::Socket::SSL debug noise, now that this is working.
* plugins/tls_cert
New file to automate creating self-signed certificates for TLS.

root exposure, and avoids (e.g.) files being created as root which then won't
be writable by the normal qpsmtpd user.

Use LOGNOTICE instead of LOGERROR when bailing early due to
non-multipart message.
Test clamd->ping() before scanning, and bail if it doesn't
answer (with an appropriate error).

RFC-2821 Section 4.5.1 specifically requires <postmaster> (without
domain name) as a legal RCPT TO: address.
* t/qpsmtpd-address.t
Test the above.
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@560 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
Add POD to describe how to use the objects. Make the addr_cmp
method private (no need to expose it).
* t/qpsmtpd-address.t
Include tests of overloaded comparison, including sorting.
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@559 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
Don't overload '<=>' operator casually. Swap host/user portion
when comparing (makes it easy to sort by domain).
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@558 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
Since we are already overloading stringify, we might as well
overload comparisons as well (this may be too simplistic a test).

lib/Qpsmtpd/SMTP.pm
Take the AUTH method and put it in SMTP.pm where it belongs.
* lib/Qpsmtpd.pm
lib/Qpsmtpd/Plugin.pm
Expose the auth_user/auth_mechanism property to plugin writers.
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@556 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
Fix fairly egregious error. If the size_threashold is smaller than
the body while writing, the file handle would be closed prematurely.
Ouch. I don't like it here from a stylistic point of view, but at
least it will actually work now.
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@553 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
Convert objects to hash. Neuter parse() to wrapper around new().
Add overload stringify to $obj->format().
* t/qpsmtpd-address.t
Remove tests specific to parse(). Add test for overloaded "".
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@552 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
IO::File is buffering the message, so that the AV software doesn't get a
a chance to scan anything when size_threshold > 0.
* qpsmtpd
Apparently no one is running tcpserver any longer, since it wasn't loading
the plugins anymore.
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@550 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
By default, spool all messages to disk.
* config.sample/size_threshold
Provide minimal explanation for how to avoid spooling small messages.
git-svn-id: https://svn.perl.org/qpsmtpd/branches/0.31@549 958fd67b-6ff1-0310-b445-bb7760255be9
Don't try to load the plugins if they are already loaded.
* lib/Qpsmtpd/Transaction.pm
Get the size_threshold by inheritance.
Extract the spooling of the body as a new sub.
Always spool the body when calling body_filename().
Compare the body_size to the cached size_threshold.
* lib/Qpsmtpd.pm
Cache the size_threshold and provide an accessor method.
* qpsmtpd-forkserver
Initialize both the spool_dir and size_threshold caches before forking.

an explicit $QPSMTPD_CONFIG variable to specify where the config lives,
overriding $QMAIL/control and /var/qmail/control if set. The usual "last
location with the file wins" rule still applies.

prior to entering the main accept loop.
Split handling of --pid-file so that preexisting pid files are dealt with and
the file is opened before priveleges are dropped, but the writing out of the
new file happens after dropping privs and (if applicable) forking the
daemonized process, so the correct PID is recorded.

Don't use varlog() directly unless you are passing all parameters.
Don't try to log() anything during loading of logging plugins.
r587@jpeacock: jpeacock | 2005-07-09 06:59:57 -0400
Cannot use new-style hooking with logging plugins (yet).

Track hooks as array and hash.
Re-revert changes to logging plugins to use new-style hooking.
logging/adaptive assumed that register() has been called before hook_logging.
