Well, I had been getting this error:

Permission denied
until I recently copied the submit.mc file from
/usr/src/contrib/yadayada to /etc/mail. Did a make submit.cf and
restarted the sendmail daemon using make stop and make start
I also double checked the permissions on various files and directories
according to what I found in UPDATING and /etc/mail/README as well as in
the archives.
Now I've got an error I haven't seen before:
Jul 23 14:46:29 juno sm-mta[2675]: g6NIkT53002675: SYSERR(root):
collect: Cannot write ./dfg6NIkT53002675 (bfcommit, uid=0, gid=25):
Permission denied
I've done a locate sm-mta but can't find it (using several regex's).
Also, $ for i in `locate collect|grep bin`; do
ls -l $i
done
shows:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 13436 Apr 27 22:42
/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.bin/mail/collect.o
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 14076 Apr 27 22:52
/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/collect.o
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 16592 Mar 24 15:18
/usr/src/usr.bin/mail/collect.c
None of these appears to have gid=25 or be in smmsp. Apr 27 was the
last cvsup I did; before I do it again, I'd like to get this problem
fixed. :-)
Take a look at /var/spool/clientmqueue - the permissions should be 775, and
the ownership should be root:smmsp. The sendmail binary is setgid, and
the error you are seeing is because group smmsp does not have write access
to that directory.
# chown :smmsp /var/spool/clientmqueue
# chmod g+w !$
and you should be set... You may need to do the same for /var/spool/mqueue.
