Yes, tell us what options you are trying.  That's not an error, it's
an informational -- it says you should supply arguments, and tells
you where to look for a list :-)  E.g. my queue is empty,

# sendmail -qf
#

If you can't see arguments qmail is using, perhaps you could write a
sendmail wrapper that spits out the command line it's using and then
calls exim4.
