I get this:
bash$ locate sys/types.h
/usr/include/sys/types.h
/usr/lib/bcc/include/sys/types.h
/usr/i386-glibc20-linux/include/sys/types.h
bash$ locate sys/stat.h
/usr/include/sys/stat.h
/usr/lib/bcc/include/sys/stat.h
/usr/i386-glibc20-linux/include/sys/stat.h
bash$
I reckon you've got a duff linux install. If /usr/include does
not exist, try
$ ln -s /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include /usr/include
if /usr/include does but /usr/include/sys doesn't, try
$ ln -s /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys /usr/include/sys
if _that_ exists too, try
$ cp /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys/stat.h /usr/include/sys/
$ cp /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys/types.h /usr/include/sys/
This is what I'd do to get going and try qmail out, but I'd try to
get to the bottom of why you don't have /usr/include/sys/types.h in
the first place. What linux distribution are you using?

Relax about that; the majority of folks on this list don't hold that
poster's opinion, or if they do, they're a bit more patient...
