It looks like everything is functioning exactly correctly.
The problem is you didn't set the mail TO: address to what
you wanted. You set it to:
> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Try doing this:
echo "to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
Also, I would think you'd like to set up mail addresses as
[EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]
