qmail-qstat typically shows about 500 messages in the queue and 0 messages
not yet processed.
qmail-qread only shows remotes that are marked as "done" or very recently
tried. No locals.

Never. Even when I send SIGALRM to qmail-send, I'm luck to get 2 locals and
40 remotes.

Again, I'm all ears. I'd love to resolve this. It's almost like messages
are randomly sneaking into the queue without qmail-send being able to see
them until it is restarted. Fun fun...
