So you have upgraded... to 4.6?
Remember sendmail no longer runs as root.
Check usr/src/updating
smmsp is the new user for sendmail   double check var/spool/mque
to be owned by smmsp.

See if that helps.

Paul,
 Thanks, but i understand that, i was wondering what dirs that might be?
/var/sppol/mqueu or clientmque..etc   I tried changing both with no
success.

Seems like you have the wrong permissions/owner set for some direc-
tory/files that are used in the mailhandling process. For changing
these take a look at 'man chmod' and 'man chown'. This is though
just a hunch as I haven't got this error you're describing myself.

Best regards,
Paul
