For the records, a proposed fix for sendmail.el Debian changes in emacs22
is to use

(if (not (file-executable-p "/usr/bin/mail"))
    (progn
     (message "/usr/bin/mail is not executable")
     (setq mail-interactive t)))

instead of 

     (if (not (file-executable-p "/usr/bin/mail"))
         (error "/usr/bin/mail is not executable"))

I am including #429059 in my reply, so emacs22 maintainers are aware that an
RC bugreport has been filed against mailcrypt because of this problem and
can join the thread.
