God dag.  The error message should tell you exactly what the problem
is.  As an added security measure, a program that modifies a .qmail
file may optionally set the x bit in the permissions.  Since the x bit 
is otherwise useless, it should never be set.  qmail-local checks the
x bit and refuses to do program deliveries.

Sendmail had a very bad history of allowing remote users to invoke
rogue program deliveries.  Dan was rightfully cautious about program
deliveries when he first wrote qmail.
