The output of "sh -x /etc/rc.d/init.d/svscan start" would be helpful,
but I'd guess that you've got a link in your services directory (which
could be /services) called "qmail" that points to the wrong place. I
have no idea what the right place is, or which of the packages or
HOWTO's should have set this up.

svscan is part of daemontools.

It needs "qmail" to point to a directory containing the appropriate
"run" script, among other things.

You're installing an MTA you know nothing about on a production
system, and you expect that to raise customer confidence? Wasn't that
a Dilbert strip?
