Got the same Problem because sendmail used /var/spool/mail/username
What I did was running qmail with Mailbox Format and then doing a symlink...
from /home/username/Mailbox to /var/spool/mail/username
for eg.
# ln -s /home/mmaier/Mailbox /var/spool/mail/mmaier
It's not the best Solution but worked for me very good with System Accounts.
