You either have a permission problem or something has used up all file descriptors. What says:
ls -ld /var/qmail/queue/info/0
and
rpm -V qmail

Hi Charlie
Thanks for the heads up.
There are no subfolders below the folders in /var/qmail. I have the folder queue for example but nothing below it. The output from the rpm -V qmail gave me the info needed to recreate the desired folders (by qmail) but I am not sure of the required permissions; I have set the owner to match the parent folder: chown qmails:qmail * or chown qmailq:qmail *.
I have guessed that the perms should be 750 or thereabouts.

Have you stopped to think how the directories were missing in the first place?
Either you deleted the directories and their contents, you've got a badly corrupted file system or you have a security breach. Only in the first case would I think about fixing the system (which I'd do by reinstalling the qmail RPM).
