You should have a /var/spool/clientmqueue directory with the following
ownership and permissions:
happy-idiot-talk:/home/matthew:# ls -lad /var/spool/clientmqueue
drwxrwx--- 2 smmsp smmsp 512 8 Jul 03:02 /var/spool/clientmqueue/
If you haven't got a smmsp UID and group, then you need to run
mergemaster again and merge in the changes to the master password and
group files. For the record, you should have the following accounts
for sendmail:
smmsp:*:25:25:Sendmail Submission User:/var/spool/clientmqueue:/sbin/nologin
mailnull:*:26:26:Sendmail Default User:/var/spool/mqueue:/sbin/nologin
and groups:
smmsp:*:25:
mailnull:*:26:
Cheers,
Matthew
