Shutting down sendmail: [FAILED]
Shutting down sm-client: [FAILED]
Starting sendmail: 451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 91: fileclass: cannot open '/etc/mail/local-host-names': Group writable directory
451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 588: fileclass: cannot open '/etc/mail/trusted-users': Group writable directory

Re: wierd sendmail problems...

O.K, I solved it. For those who have similar problems, check your parent dirs permission and root dir permission.
