I decided to run a supervised copy of qmail. As I found in the list archiv, 
I was not the first one who has trouble with the pipe in the /var/qmail/rc 
file:
  exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
  qmail-start ./Mailbox accustamp | setuser qmaill cyclog /var/log/qmail

But I also found that the online FAQ on djb's qmail page has changed on how 
to use cyclog. It says now: 
Replace splogger qmail with sh -c 'accustamp | cyclog /var/qmail/log'.

Now my /var/qmail/rc file with
  exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
  qmail-start ./Mailbox sh -c 'accustamp | cyclog /var/log/qmail'
works without any problem under supervise.

I hope this information is helpful.
