There's probably an ownership or permissions problem with /var/log/qmail.
Those directories need to be owned by the same user running multilog, or at
least be writable by that user.  My guess would be user 'qmaill'.

What's in your qmail-smtpd/run file?  There's an error with the call to exec
in there, it appears.
