Yes.  Local delivery under qmail is done with the privileges of the
system user owning the mailbox.  You should have created the qconfirm
directory as this user.  To fix it, you need to find out under which uid
local delivery is done (in doubt add '|id >/tmp/foo' to the top of the
dot-qmail file, send a mail, and look at /tmp/foo), and re-create the
qconfirm directory as this user, or use 'chown -R'.
