What does the line you start qmail with read ?
You've probably told qmail to deliver to a mailbox in mbox format called Mailbox,
which is one large file which contains all messages.
You've probably got an entry in $HOME which reads:
drwxr-xr-x 2 [user] [group] 512 Jun 24 17:30 Mailbox
while it should read:
-rw-r--r-- 1 [user] [group] 0 Jun 24 17:30 Mailbox
Note the lacking of 'd' in the second line
You should try rm -rf'ing the Mailbox directory, after checking there's nothing
of value contained in it ....
After this qmail should automagically create the Mailbox file.
