This could be due to filesystem corruption, either because of crashes or
for some other reasons. You can try fsck -y on a quiet system (i.e. in
single-user mode).

2.2.6-R is ancient, and it contained well known security holes. The same
goes for your version of sendmail. You should definitely upgrade your
server. 3.2-STABLE is officially recommended version, but if you're afraid
of too many changes (ELF, bootloader, changed VM) you should at least
upgrade to the latest 2.2-STABLE.
