I've checked the FAQ, I've checked the list archives, I've even 
checked the bug reports.

I'm running OpenBSD 3.7-stable.  I've installed mutt-1.4.2ip0 from 
/usr/ports/mail/mutt/stable .  sendmail is using the default 
localhost.mc with just a few lines added so that it can relay via 
SMTP AUTH to my ISP.  mutt is using the default submit.mc, calling 
via "/usr/sbin/sendmail -C/etc/mail/submit.cf -oem -oi" .

I've verified, in so far as it is documented, that the installation 
is correct...

-r-xr-sr-x  1 root   smmsp  606532 Aug 16 05:30 sendmail
drwxrwx---  2 smmsp  smmsp     512 Aug 18 01:31 clientmqueue
drwx------  2 root   wheel     512 Aug 18 01:37 mqueue
-r--r--r--  1 root   wheel   39362 Aug 18 01:37 
/etc/mail/localhost.cf
-r--r--r--  1 root   wheel   40257 Aug 18 02:04 /etc/mail/submit.cf

$ grep smmsp /etc/passwd
smmsp:*:25:25:Sendmail Message Submission 
Program:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin
$ grep smmsp /etc/group
smmsp:*:25:

So I try to send a test message to myself, and mutt complains...

WARNING: RunAsUser for MSP ignored, check group ids (egid=1000, 
want=25)

.... and sendmail (names changed to protect the innocent) complains 
....

Aug 18 23:47:08 hostname sendmail[448]: NOQUEUE: Authentication-
Warning: hostname.domainname: Processed by username with -C 
/etc/mail/submit.cf
Aug 18 23:47:08 hostname sendmail[448]: NOQUEUE: Authentication-

/var/spool/clientmqueue
Aug 18 23:47:08 hostname sendmail[448]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(username): 
can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied

So what is wrong with this picture, and what can I do to fix it?  
As far as I know, my present installation varies from the default 
only in the slight modification I made to localhost.mc and the 
compilation of mutt.  
If it's working okay for everyone else, what does your install look 
like?
