Yes this is my installation.

During my installation I did not get notified that a patch is missing.
Reading the manual I think I should get an error message if my qmail would
not be pached. Is there a way I can test if my qmail is pached?

There's a bug in qmail-scanner's ./configure script that makes it not realize that QMAILQUEUE isn't installed. On the 14th, I wrote on this list:

To enable proper checking, I had to change line 797 from:

if [ "$STRINGS" != "" -a "$QMAILSMTPD" != "" -a "$MANUAL_INSTALL" = "" ]; then

to:

if [ "$STRINGS" != "" -a "$QMAILSMTPD" != "" -a "$MANUAL_INSTALL" = "0" ]; then

Apparently, $MANUAL_INSTALL is 0, not an empty string.

I didn't feel like applying QMAILQUEUE, so here's how I got around the problem:

1. Move /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue to qmail-queue.real
2. Install qmail-scanner
3. ln -s /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner.pl /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue
4. Edit qmail-scanner.pl to set $qmailqueue = '/var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue.real';

Basically, when programs invoke qmail-queue, they're now actually running qmail-scanner, which then invokes qmail-queue.real.
