You won't see anything on port 25, since sqwebmail submits outgoing mail via
a script, sendit.sh

This has been discussed before; see for example
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg06333.html
or use the search function to find other threads.

Try doing:

# strings /path/to/cgi-bin/sqwebmail | grep sendit.sh

which should show you the path it is trying to run. Then have a look inside
that script and see if it is calling your MTA in the right way.

If you installed qmail but forgot to replace sendmail with the qmail
wrapper, then you may find that the wrong MTA is being called.
