No, it's "qmail" because that's how Dan wants it. E.g.:
de5@sws5$ cd /usr/local/src/qmail-1.03/
de5@sws5$ grep Qmail *
de5@sws5$ grep qmail *|wc
3223 15870 176030
de5@sws5$ man qmail|head -15

What is it?
qmail is a secure, reliable, efficient, simple message transfer
agent. It is meant as a replacement for the entire sendmail-binmail
system on typical Internet-connected UNIX hosts.
----
Even when it's the first word of a sentence, Dan uses "qmail", not
"Qmail".
I'm not anal-retentive, I'm just trying to set the record straight. If
you can find a single instance where DJB wrote "Qmail", I'll shut up
about it.
qmail is the e.e.cummings of MTA's.
