        I am incorrect.  As of 8.12, you must have the daemon running
        in order to do deliveries.  $SENDMAILSOURCE/sendmail/SECURITY
        has a big chunk of information about this, including potential
        work arounds (mostly this has to do with allowing users to read
        the mailqueue.

        This is, as I originally surmised, a result of not running the
        daemon as root.

        Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
