rpm database problem

hi all;

I need to get rid of an old qmail rpm but when I do a rpm -e qmail I get :

error: "qmail" specifies multiple packages

and a rpm -q qmail gives me :

qmail-1.03+patches-19_rh9
qmail-1.03+patches-19_rh9

So there are 2 refences to one package. I do a rpm --rebuilddb but no help.
How can I remove this?
