Just found that qmail seems to run OK when  /etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail is executed
after reboot.
However I still get the same erorr when I use /usr/local/sbin/qmail from the
command line.
I'm just carrying on for the moment to get qmail-pop3d working.

Thanks,
Phil Hedley

What platform is this?

What is the output of this:

  ls -lR /var/qmail/supervise

You need to do the maildirmake for each existing user *as that
user*. For new users, you might be able to do a maildirmake in the
skeleton (template) directory used by your system's adduser/useradd
utility, q.v.
