For my reference: tai64nlocal will convert the weird qmail log timestamp format into something readable. Takes input from stdin, so:
cat current | tai64nlocal
to read the 'current' log file with readable datetimes. Wish I knew that before.

Also I added the mtrack script which also makes reading /var/log/qmail/send/current/ *much* easier (it groups message ids together so you can actually see what is happening in there.) I renamed it qmailsendlogreader.pl, so combined with tai64nlocal we can read the logs much easier using:
cat current | /usr/local/sbin/qmailsendlogreader.pl | tai64nlocal

I still get an error if I try to see a log.

Okay, right, I don't have to manually look through the queue directories, I can just do:

qmailctl queue
