Claus,
Looks like your bug. As an FYI, sendmail.rpms in Suse, RedHat, and OpenLinux all exhibit this behavior, which means they're all broken. Reading an entire file into memory must be a BSD feature. I have enabled an SSH account for you, so you can come in and debug. Richard also can get in and will be helping.
