#chmod 705 /var/spool/mqueue

Bad advice. Completely bogus and harmful advice.

1. It's wrong

2. It is likely to break his sendmail install

mqueue and clientmqueue permissions must always be

drwxrwx---      smmsp  smmsp    ... /var/spool/clientmqueue
drwx------      root   wheel    ... /var/spool/mqueue

for sendmail 8.12.x

See the sendmail docs / release notes  ...

What doesn't work anymore
Normal users can't use mailq anymore to see the MTA mail queue. There are several ways 
around it, e.g., changing QueueFileMode or giving users access via a program like sudo.
