Note that there is no requirement for qmail to deliver to ~/Mailbox.  You
can continue to deliver to /var/mail if you like; see /var/qmail/boot/binm*
or /var/qmail/boot/proc*.  Interesting how only 2/10 of the sample boot
scripts deliver to ~/Mailbox and yet Pike totally missed it!  Of course,
given his other complaints, I suppose it is hardly surprising.
