Recompile from source, and reinstall.  (It's very easy with the ports
collection.  But maybe in this case you can compile it by yourself,
that's easy with qmail too.)  If the bug is still there, report it on
the qmail list.

Also make sure it's not a problem with your mail client.  (Probably
it's not, since it's there with TEST.deliver, you say.)

Rahul.

ps I've been running qmail 1.03 on FreeBSD, since 3.2-stable (now it's
3.4-stable) without any problems.
