I tried ps -axww | grep qmail without luck. Something is happening however
since when I try:

echo to: paul | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject

syslog shows the message as successfully delivered. However the user paul
does not receive the mail (paul owns his home directory and it is not group
or world writeable). My OS is Caldera linux (2.0.35).

Paul
