Because they may not have followed all of our instructions, or put 
things in a different location than we specify.

If you install the software yourself, from the instructions we 
provide on our site(s), and you don't use a binary package version 
that someone else created, etc... then we're much more likely to help 
you.

The issue is that it's not clear to me who is responsible for 
installing the software on your system, and whether or not it's 
already installed but not yet properly configured, etc....

Okay, I missed that part.  I thought that you'd said that it was 
developed by a German ISP, and it wasn't clear to me what you meant 
by this.

I don't do qmail, so I doubt I'm going to be able to provide much help.

I was just trying to help you find the right people that you need to 
talk to, based on what I could understand of your situation with your 
servers and who installed what, etc....
