WRONG. There is always _one_ qmail-send.
concurrencylocal -> max concurrent qmail-local processes
concurrencyremote -> max concurrent qmail-remote processes
1 -> qmail-send process

WRONG.
This is true for qmail-local/qmail-remote, but not for the queue manager
qmail-send.

ACK.
And you... well, I'd not answer questions here if I am not sure. No offense
intended, it just confuses.
For the original question:
1 qmail-send -> 1 queue
You can install more than one qmail instace per machine, e. g. in
/var/qmail/1/, 2/ and so on. Change conf-home and make setup check for each
instance. You have multiple queues then and must find a solution to balance
the load between them.
