/usr/sbin/sendmail should be suid after installation:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dpkg --contents
/var/cache/apt/archives/courier-mta_0.47-3_i386.deb | grep sendmail
-rw-r--r-- root/root 4437 2004-10-16 23:30:30
./usr/share/man/man1/sendmail.1.gz
-rwsr-xr-x root/daemon 26328 2004-10-16 23:32:09 ./usr/sbin/sendmail
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2004-10-16 23:32:11
./usr/share/man/man1/rmail.1.gz -> sendmail.1.gz
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2004-10-16 23:31:28 ./usr/lib/sendmail ->
../sbin/sendmail
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2004-10-16 23:31:28 ./usr/sbin/rmail -> sendmail
