The error says your sendmail files have time stamp in future...some thing like that. Surprisingly the error will disappear next day. What I have inferred is that at the time of install the GMT (or probably EST USA) is stamped on some sendmail files and since we end up setting our system to IST the error remains till the local time in GMT is past the time stamp.
