Hi:

I have installed & configured qmail on my
freebsd machine running FreeBSD 2.2-960130-SNAP.

I am running into some strange qmail behavior.
I have configured qmail under tcpserver.

Queues are permanently stuck and messages keep
accruing in the queue. When the machine is rebooted,
tcpserver starts, apparently qmail also does, but 
qmail dies. 

During reboot or any time I restart qmail, I get a 
handful of messages that are delivered but are never
cleared from the queue. In other words, if I reboot
again, I get the same set of messages again from the
queue. Also, kill -ALRM or running tcp_ok seems to 
make absolutely no sense. When I run qmail-qstat, all
messages are shown as being in queue, with 0 messages
not yet preprocessed (value 0 is true all the time).

When I restart qmail manually, I do see all the processes such as
qmail-send, rspawm, lspawn, splogger,
etc. As explained earlier, qmail does not stay up
after a reboot but tcpserver does. 

Any ideas, tips will be appreciated. I also tried
doing a make setup check without any success. 

Wonder if this has anything to do with my old version
of FreeBSD and or locking. I have also run the 
qmail-sanity perl script, it does not show any errors.

Thanks in advance, Dinesh.
