George:

"/var/qmail/control" directory contains control files. That is the best
explanation. They control the  operation and behavior of qmail.

"defaultdomain" control file is used to argument any email address in the
message that are not recognized as being proper [EMAIL PROTECTED] format.
"defaultdomain" is most often used when sending mail messages to local users
on the same mail server.

"local" The local control file is used to specify mail addresses that qmail
should consider to be local addresses to the mail server. 

"me" This control file is the most important control file in qmail. Qmail
will not run if the "me" control file is not present. The value defined in
"me" control file is used as the default value for many of the other control
files if they are not present.

Most of the above description is from "Running Qmail" by Richard Blum. If
you are just getting started, I suggest that you read this book. I hope it
helps.
