Nothing that I can see. When Sendmail starts up, only the following is 
logged:

Apr 17 21:53:41 80-235-112-80-dsl sm-mta[95]: starting daemon (8.12.9p2): SMTP+queueing at 00:30:00 
Apr 17 21:53:41 80-235-112-80-dsl sm-msp-queue[98]: starting daemon (8.12.9p2): queueing at 00:30:00

And the two daily messages being sent cause the following to be logged:

Apr 18 03:02:55 80-235-112-80-dsl sendmail[583]: i3I02t6A000583: from=root, size=490, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200404180002.i3I02t6A000583 at 80-235-112-80-dsl.trt.estpak.ee>, relay=root at localhost

After sendmail has ben restarted, everything looks the same except the two last lines:

Apr 13 03:02:24 80-235-112-80-dsl sm-mta[21690]: i3D02Lfq021688: to=toomas.aas at raad.tartu.ee\t, ctladdr=<root at 80-235-112-80-dsl.trt.estpak.ee> (0/0), delay=00:00:03, xdelay=00:00:03, mailer=relay, pri=32401, relay=mail.neti.ee [194.126.101.100],

 dsn=2.0.0 tat=Sent (Ok: queued as 6E9E6211B0)


Also, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual in /var/log/messages.
