That, I can't help much with.  I'd have to check a bunch of things I
have no access to, most notably the logs on your incoming mailserver.

No; there are others as well.  mmap, stop, tty, poll - see <sys/conf.h>
(at least in the version I'm running - it's the "struct cdevsw"
definition, wherever it is, that you want to look at).

You don't necessarily need all of these in all circumstances.  I don't
think I've ever written a driver that has a nontrivial stop routine,
for example.

Basically, yes: drivers don't handle seeking.  Seeks just change the
offset field for the file descriptor; the driver doesn't hear about it
until I/O is done, and then they get it through, yes, the uio_offset
field of the struct uio they're passed.
