Hmm, I wonder what's in your run script(s).

tcpserver is trying to listen to some port (probably 25), but
something else is already listening on that port (e.g., sendmail,
inetd, xinetd, tcpserver).

The "address" it's talking about is a port number, not an IP address.

Sure: provide some real information instead of a summary that says,
basically, "I did everything right but it doesn't work." The output of
qmail-showctl would be a good start.
