Just a thought, what did you set your security level to on the mandrake
install? I installed using paranoid (level=5). One of the headaches this
caused was that it set the file permissions on /etc/resolv.conf to 400, and
kept returning them to 400 when a security audit was run. It caused all
sorts of odd DNS errors on non-root processes.
FYI, when I tried to install qmail I had this same problem, and just
switched back to postfix. However, this was before I fixed that little
resolv.conf problem. Maybe it works now? Anyway, check that you can resolve
the MX you're sending to after su'ing to the qmail user.
