Look for "mail.*" in the file /etc/syslog.conf. Then check the last 20-30 lines
or which look something like these:

May 19 21:50:08 localhost qmail: 927143408.951531 running
May 19 21:50:12 localhost qmail: 927143412.421693 new msg 313551
May 19 21:50:12 localhost qmail: 927143412.422017 info msg 313551: bytes 224
from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 3861 uid 0
May 19 21:50:12 localhost qmail: 927143412.509703 starting delivery 1: msg
313551 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED]
May 19 21:50:13 localhost qmail: 927143413.673811 delivery 1: success:
did_0+0+0/

A good idea is to run "tail -30 logfile", where logfile is the name of the
logfile. Esp. check for occurencies of "failure" or "deferral" in the qmail
logs.
