Hi Taylor,

Did you finish the qmail installation with 'make disable-sendmail' and 
'make enable-qmail'?

You must edit your configuration files into /var/qmail/control/ too!

The installation will install qmail.sh file into /usr/local/etc/rc.d
to start qmail you need to reboot, or just type ./qmail.sh start  into the
above directory.

Can you type 'netstat -a | grep LISTEN' as root and see if you have
something to listen as smtp?
