In qmail section, link to download page for ucspi and qmail

Decided I didn't care

Could not repro.

Changed to 755.

Added note.

Already mentioned in the doc.

owned by remadmin in reference platform. Seems harmless so didn't add anything to instructions.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
>bin and lib were group owned by staff. I changed that to root as well:
>chown -R root.root bin lib modules

could not repro

Changed default suggestion to --analyze (once per day) to be conservative due to forum thread about full analyze affecting performance due to locking
