The dates are in TAI64N format. Pipe the log through `tai64nlocal` to convert
them to human-readable format.

I don't actually use Dave Sill's setup, but I would guess that in your
qmail rc/startup script, you have put single quotes where there should be
backticks (i.e. "`") -- therefore, instead of using the _contents_ of
/var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery for the default delivery argument to
qmail-start, you're using that garbage above.
