a The sendmail program sometimes lives in /usr/lib or in some other directory. If so, adjust this path accordingly.
b As of V8.12, sendmail is no longer set-user-id root, but is instead set-group-id smmsp or the like, and sendmail is root only when it is run by
root. The older versions of sendmail might need to be set-group-id kmem for the load average to be checked on some systems.
c CERT (the Computing Emergency Response Team) and the sendmail document doc/op/op.me recommend that the queue directories be
mode 0700 to prevent potential security breaches.
