Problem solved. The nosuid flag was set on the /var partition. Without the
flag, qmailadmin does work. For the moment I don't see any other solution,
to disable nosuid flag in /etc/fstab for mount the /var partition.
Are there any plans, to let qmailadmin run as a daemon and the cgi is only
the webinterface, that connects to it? (as in the new version of sqwebmail)
Perhaps the connection to the daemon would go over a socket (then Apache can
be run chrooted again).

setuid bit set on it?  should be either root or vpopmail, qmailadmin has
to be able to write and read from the vpopmail directories.

That's probably the problem.  either that or the filesystem the
qmailadmin binary is on is mounted nosuid.  type 'mount' for more info.
