Problem solved!
It's a known bug in Netscape 4.6 etc. for unix.
Workaround is in changing the prefs:
exit netscape first, because it writes the preferences on exit
cd $HOME/.netscape
echo 'user_pref(mail.suppress_sender_header, true); ' preferences.js
echo
This is (possibly) normal.
Do:
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-qread

You should be invoking qmail-popup, looking something like:

If you are using Maildir instead of Mbox. man qmail-popup, vchkpw, and
