could be the reason?

Maybe a locking problem?  Check that sendmail and MS are using the same
lock type (and that none of your mail spools are on NFS shares).  You
can find sendmails lock type as described below (from sendmails site)...


"You can determine which locking system is used by sendmail from the
output of:

        sendmail -bt -d0.10 < /dev/null | grep HASFLOCK

If HASFLOCK is in the output, your system is using flock() for locking.
Otherwise, it is using fcntl() for locking.  "

fcntl() is called 'posix' in MS, check that 'Lock Type' in MS.conf is
set to the correct type (or commented out if sendmail is using flock()).

Failing that - have you checked for anything unusual in the maillog?
