Your mail reader, Microsoft Outlook, has a very disagreeable habit of
stripping off my entire PGP-signed quoted reply, rendering your reply 
devoid of context.  I have pasted it back in here to keep the thread 
intact.  

The error you show us above is in no way related to qmail, nor does it
have anything to do with a firewall, hence my confusion.  It is,
however, a well documented (ahem) problem with the latest round of Red
Hat updates which you will find discussed at length in the archives by
me and Bill Crawford very recently.  Go here:

I think a search for the string 'dependency hell' will get you the 
answers you're looking for.  ;-)
