Sendmail doesn't keep an independent log file. All its logs are routed
through the syslog service, so the only sure way to find out where they
wind up is to look in /etc/syslog.conf and find where it logs "mail"
syslogs. My servers store it in /var/log/syslog. But on my personal
Solaris box:

shell$ egrep 'mail\.' /etc/syslog.conf
*.err;kern.debug;daemon.notice;mail.crit        /var/adm/messages
mail.info                                       /var/log/mail.log

The "mail.info" line is the one I'm interested in. You might also look
for mail.debug or mail.notice.
