I'm not sure what you mean by 'daemon mode'. Qmail-smtpd needs tcpserver or
inetd to supply it with tcp connections; it cannot run independently.

DJB recommends running qmail-smtpd from tcpserver, not inetd.`

I use with tcpserver, because it seams be better.

Search the archives, this question has been asked before.
But, anyway, qmail-smtpd is NOT daemonizable. It needs a tcp wrapper,
whichever it may be.
