I run both Fedora CORE1 and CORE2, and i dont experience this. The
clientmqueue is ONLY for locally generated mail, not for mail
processed by mailscanner. this is no Fedora issue, its a sendmail
version issue. It is ment to be that mail is going to mqueue.in, since
you also want to scan locally generated mails.

Raymond.
