 The run file for qmail-smtpd is:

...riddled with typos...

 #!/bin/sh
 QMAILDUID='is -u qmaild'

"is" should be "id".

 NOFILESGID='id -g qmaild'
 MAXSMTPD='cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming'
 exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 200 \
 /usr/bin/tcpserver -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "MAXSMTPD" \

"MAXSMTPD" should be "$MAXSMTPD".

 -u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGIS" 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 

"$NOFILESGIS" should be "$NOFILESGID"

Should be back quotes (`) not single quotes (').
