This has nothing to do with sendmail. Sendmail does not have a POP server,
not even in the way qmail has. However, as far as i know, qmail-pop3d
does not use a general "mailbox" (i.e. Maildir) locking scheme based
on lock files.
What would you want to do with this file?

You can use qmHandle, available from http://www.qmail.org/
(You'll have to patch it to remove everything from the queue
at once... and I have had some problems with it...)
Or you can
a) stop qmail and smtpd
b) delete a few files under /var/qmail/queue
but you'd need to understand very well how the queue directory layout
works.
Are you sure you don't want to do
/var/qmail/control/queuelifetime : 1
and restart qmail, that will bounce all mails that cannot be delivered
within one second (correct me if I'm wrong, will this apply for already-
queued messages?)
