This also removes

/var/qmail/queue/lock/tcpto
/var/qmail/queue/lock/sendmutex

which would make qmail to spit out the following in the log:

alert: cannot start: unable to open mutex

I would rather do

1. Stop qmail
2. `find /var/qmail/queue -type f \! -path "*lock*" | xargs rm -f`
3. Start qmail
