Marvin,
There is -nothing- wrong with qmail and/or qmailadmin.
The hack, as far as I can determine, happened because of proftpd 1.2.1
I'm simply reinstalling qmail and running into quirks because I'm
installing old email back on top of a new install.
I figured out my problem. It was permissions on invisible files.
