Hi,

I think that's the problem with mailbox locking. I'm not sure but it seems to 
me that there exists some lockfile which doesn't allow sendmail to open 
mailbox. Look carefully:

Dec 29 15:15:46 newfw mail.local: lockmailbox /var/mail/maint failed; 

Check for lockfiles . They shouldn't be present.

Slava.
