qmail-local runs with the permissions of the user it is delivering to,
and in general, ordinary users of a system do not have permission to
write into /var/spool/mail, unless their mbox format file already
exists, and is writable by the user. Normally, it would be present, but
some programs remove it; if you can guarantee that all your users' mbox
files will exist in /var/spool/mail, you could try:
qmail-start '/var/spool/mail/$USER' ....
