It looks like this:
Mar 5 18:02:29 gray cucipop[15401]: Error locking hwware's mailbox
Mar 5 18:02:29 gray cucipop[15401]: lost hwware 208.148.249.48 240, 16 (752895), 0 (0)
Note that this is a client issue, not qmail. You need to find out
what "getting delivered multiple times" **really** means. Get the headers.
Anytime anyone uses passive tense to describe what is going on - red flags.
