Find out how qmail is started up, (e.g. in /etc/init.d/qmail) This'll
tell you how qmail-send and qmail-smtpd get rid of their logging.
(I expect syslog is used, check out /etc/syslog.conf to see if you're
happy with it's settings.)

I believe Philip Hands's qmail-src package uses syslog. This is not
the lwq-way to install qmail. His package does generate a fhs compliant
install, otoh.
