Are you running ofmipd or new-inject?  Is there a sendmail server in the
middle somewhere?  qmail in and of itself will NOT touch any of the
existing headers in your email.  It will add Received:, Delivered-To: and
Return-Path: headers but that is all.

Please send a copy of your complete test message with all headers intact
so we can check them.  Something else is getting a hold of your message or
you are NOT sending what you think you are sending.
