Actually this is only smtpd thats running it should look something like
this
160 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail
26314 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t s99999 n100
/var/log/qmail/
26424 ? S 0:00 unixserver -U -q /tmp/.qmail-qread
/usr/bin/qmail-qre
26493 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t s99999 n100
/var/log/qmail/
2393 ? S 0:00 unixserver -U -q /tmp/.qmail-qstat
/usr/bin/qmail-qst
11135 ? S 0:03 /usr/local/bin/multilog t s99999 n100
/var/log/qmail/
11144 ? S 0:06 qmail-send
11168 ? S 0:01 qmail-lspawn ./Maildir/
11169 ? S 0:00 qmail-rspawn
11170 ? S 0:01 qmail-clean
"ls -l /service" should give you something like this
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Feb 15 19:21 pop3d ->
/var/qmail/service/pop3d
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Feb 15 19:18 qmail ->

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Feb 15 20:55 smtpd ->

try "svc-start qmail" if the qmail link exists in /service
if the link does not exists add it and start qmail

The reason why the mails stick in the queue is because qmail-send is not
running start the supervised qmail process and all the mails will be
deliverd in seconds.
> It would help me greatly if anyone could help me understand how all these
things fit together. I know supervise is a replacement for just putting
something in rc.d or whatever, and i think i have that running right, since
qmail is running. What I'm hoping to accomplish is the delivery of the
email into the correct user's maildir. Confused as to how vmailmgr fits
into this, i've even made the .qmail file in the user's directory simply
point at the maildir directory, instead of using the | to send the mail to
the vmailmgr.
