Not really - you've got the right number of sendmails, can you post the following

ps -elf | grep sendmail   [so we can see the arguments too]

Whether the mail in the clientmqueue has been scanned (look for X-MailScanner in the qf files)

grep mqueue /etc/mail/sendmail.cf   [or wherever your sendmail.cf is]
