Greg, It looks like everything's set properly - the sendmail binary is setgid as expected: cyouse@wind % ls -l /usr/libexec/sendmail total 592 -r-xr-sr-x 1 root smmsp 579748 Apr 9 17:26 sendmail* And the clientmqueue is writable by that group: cyouse@wind % ls -ld /var/spool/clientmqueue drwxrwx--- 2 smmsp smmsp 512 Apr 9 17:22 /var/spool/clientmqueue/ That's all the info I can glean from /usr/src/UPDATING. Any other ideas?

Whenever updating, read /usr/src/UPDATING and the release notes. You'll see that sendmail has been updated. As far as the weirdness you are seeing, I would guess you didn't properly add smmsp before you did an installworld and /var/spool/clientmqueue ended up with the wrong ownership/permissions.
