I think I have a similar problem here: (I only noted this with my root mails 
at the moment!)
There are three local users getting root mails. They are in one line 
in /etc/aliases with their username (no alias)
root: usera,userb,userc
yesterday only one of them (the last -- userc) recieved the mail today userb 
and userc. usera did not recieve email. (I did the update 3 days ago; 
rootmail should be delivered at least every day in the morning at 6:30).
usera never got root mails.
And now for the funny part: The log says the following (anonymized):
Jan 31 06:29:57 myserver sm-mta[2660]: myuniqeid1234: to=usera,userb,userc, 
ctladdr=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (0/0), delay=00:00:05, xdelay=00:00:00, 
mailer=local, pri=95718, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent

before updating there was a line for every user in the mail log; now it trys 
to deliver at once (as I found out because of the "m" option in 
LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS?!) and eats some of the mails for unknown reason.

I used 8.13.3-1 before and did an upgrade to 8.13.3-3. The only significant 
change I noted was: (diff -u sendmail.cf.old sendmail.cf)

..the change in the LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS.

Any help highly appreciated!! If you need my config files and/or mail.log 
please tell me and I will send them to you in private.

best regards,
 Adi Kriegisch
