If you installed via LWQ shouldn't the correct way to start/stop be
qmail restart
or
qmail stop then qmail start
rather than qmailctl?
That's how I do mine. After you stop qmail do a "ps aux" (no quotes)
and see if qmail is still running. If it is, then it didn't stop and it
didn't reread
the control files.
