That is a very dangerous thing to do.  Undo that immediately:

chmod 0700 /var/spool/mqueue

If you are running sendmail 8.12, recently incorporated into RELENG_4
(STABLE), then /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail permissions should look like
this:

  -rwxr-sr-x  1 root  smmsp  2864258 Mar 22 21:17 sendmail

and /var/spool/clientmqueue shoud look like this:

  drwxrwx---  2 smmsp  smmsp   512 Apr  1 18:42 clientmqueue

If you are running sendmail 8.11.6, /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
permissions should look like this:

  -r-sr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  458336 Mar  1 22:20 sendmail
