ugh.

do not use gentoo's qmail ebuilds, especially if you've never worked with 
qmail in the past.

Especially since they include a lot of really ridiculous patches and hacks 
that make their system much harder to support and less reliable.

I would recommend that you 'unmerge' qmail and related packages on your system 
and follow www.lifewithqmail.org.  Once you have an LWQ setup, you can easily 
add vpopmail and courier-imap on top of it, and, since you've actually done 
the install yourself, rather than letting a package management system do it 
for you, you'll have a better idea of where to start when you encounter 
issues.

ps. note: I am a gentoo user, I'm not just biased because I don't like their 
package management system or something.
