It isn't. |

In /service, there should be qmail-send, which is a symbolic link to |
| 14 |
/etc/qmail/supervise/qmail-send. Make sure there aren't other links |
| 15 |
pointing there. But it sounds more like qmail-send is being started |
| 16 |
somehow other that by svscan (which monitors /service). |

You can check the status of qmail-send like this: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
# svstat /service/qmail-send |
| 21 |
/service/qmail-send: up (pid 7162) 1206573 seconds |
| 22 |
|

If you get 0 seconds, something is wrong. I find that pstree is a good |
| 24 |
way to get a system overview: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
# pstree |
| 27 |
init-+-6*[agetty] |
| 28 |
... |
| 29 |
|-sshd---sshd---sshd---bash |
| 30 |
|-svscan-+-supervise---qmail-send-+-qmail-clean |
| 31 |
| | |-qmail-lspawn |
| 32 |
| | `-qmail-rspawn |
| 33 |
| `-supervise---multilog |
| 34 |
|-syslog-ng |
| 35 |
... |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
If your system doesn't look like this, something is wrong. Could you |
| 38 |
have possibly manually started qmail-send? If so, you need to kill it. |
| 39 |
It may very likely also be running with different default delivery |
| 40 |
instructions if started manually. |
