When acting as an (E)SMTP client, sendmail queues outbound messages -- by default, in /var/spool/mqueue/ (ref. "QUEUE_DIR" in the configuration). When I look there, I see files with names like "df..." and "qf..." (where "..." represents a string of numeric & mixed-case alphabetic charcaters). These are in pairs: the "df*" files contain the data to be transmitted via (E)SMTP, while the "qf*" files contain meta-data about the message (including reasons the message didn't get sent yet). The Sendmail Installation and Operation Guide (a copy of which may be found in src/contrib/sendmail/doc/op/op.me) has considerable detail on these files -- search for "qf" (as a suggestion).
