After much playing around with qmail files, I believe I have gotten part
of qmail working. I say part, because I have no trouble _sending_ mail,
but in delivering it, either to users on the same machine or to diffrent
hosts. Pine is using the /usr/sbin/sendmail wrapper provided by qmail to
send mail.
However, when I try to check the mail that was sent, it has not been
delivered. I use bin/qmail-qstat to look a the queue, and it is growing
bigger and bigger:
---results of bin/qmail-qstat---
messages in queue: 138
messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 138
-------
I ran ps -auxw | grep qmail to determine what qmail services I had
running. As you can see, both qmail-send and qmail-smtpd are running.
(As a side question, is qmail-send supposed to be running so much
compared to the other processes?
---results of ps -auxw | grep qmail---

I would have expected qmail-inject to deliver the message as soon as
possible. But it has been at least 5 minutes since I sent the test
message and it still has not been delivered.
As I mentioned in a previous email question, I am working behind a home
firewall/DHCP server. My DHCP address is 192.168.0.102. My host name is
localhost.bsd.local. If there is any other info I should include, please
let me know.
