The sendmail has two "things", "sendmail" and "sm-client". "sm-client" is
the submision program, not the daemon. It runs as user smmsp. However, it's
not a good idea to run apache as "smmsp" or "chown apache
/var/spool/clientmqueue".

BTW, the apache could do the job with the same permission before I updated
the sendmail rpm.

Thanks for your reply,
Leo
