Here's a "Received" header from an email sent from my RaQ3i with the 3.0
update installed:

As you can see, it's running sendmail 8.9.3.

Here's what "telnet" gives me:

As you can see, it's running kernel 2.2.14C5.

Herre's what a telnet to the "POP3" port gives me:

As you can see, it's running QPOP 2.53.

Don't know; didn't have it installed.

Don't know about the rest.  I've been running the update a bit over two
weeks with no problems, though.
