I assume you're talking about Bruce Guenter's QMAILQUEUE patch, which can be
found at http://www.em.ca/~bruceg/qmail-qfilter/current/ .

A 'patch' is typically a set of changes for a known release of source code.
You use a program called 'diff' to create a patchfile, and a program called
'patch' to apply them, hence the name.  Read the manpage for 'patch' on your
system, download the qmail source code, unpack it, and apply the patch.
Then compile and (re-)install qmail.

If these instructions are too terse, you are probably in over your head for
the moment.  You should probably stick to a vanilla qmail install until you
have time to do some additional research on the topic.
