thanks for your feedback, i'm happy to hear logcheck is running fine. :)
although this bug may need to be reassigned to the package, which
created that strange group ownership of /var/log/mail.

exim4 usually logs to /var/log/exim4 on all of standard installs i see
around me. so what mail subsystem of yours is logging to aboves dir?
do you have some custom syslog (or syslog-ng) rules that direct
messages there?

maybe we can grasp which packet added the smmsp user.
what does belows command on your box show:
egrep smmsp -r /var/lib/dpkg/info/
