| Why does qmail object to the execute bit being set? I don't know.

Security:  It's meant for .qmail files that might be automatically
edited, for example by a mailing list manager.  Even if an attacker
manages to sneak in a program delivery in the .qmail file, this
feature will stop him from exploiting it.
