qmail-send lost its connection to qmail-lspawn when you killed
qmail-lspawn...

so it exited.

Minutes later, you tried to restart qmail, but it failed because it
couldn't open /var/qmail/queue/lock/sendmutex. I'm not sure why that
failed. Possibly related to killing lspawn.

Ouch. Kill qmail-send to stop qmail.

My sendmutex looks like:

-rw-------   1 qmails   qmail           0 Sep 27 10:52 /var/qmail/queue/lock/sendmutex

You might want to run "make check" from the build directory.
