I believe that when you do telneting to ports 25 & 587, the sendmail which respond are not using submit.cf but using sendmail.cf. > Though I'm using SASL2 and not tested SASL1, I cannot see such > problem.

I see. But, as the comment line above the confRUN_AS_USER says, it affects only when sendmail is invoked from root. So, I still cannot understand what changing confRUN_AS_USER means.
