Why does startup script say "no such file"?

Check the "magic number" (the first line of the script):
head -1 /usr/local/sbin/qmail | od -c
You should see:
0000000   #   !   /   b   i   n   /   s   h  \n
0000012
If you see something that ends with "\r  \n", then the file is in DOS
format, and you can fix it by doing:
tr -d '\015' </usr/local/sbin/qmail >/tmp/foo
cp /tmp/foo /usr/local/sbin/qmail
