I have this in my sendmail.cf

Mlocal,         P=[IPC], F=lsDFMA5:/|@qPSXnz9u, S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL,
                 T=DNS/RFC822/SMTP,
                 A=FILE /var/run/dovecot2.2/lmtp

Note the missing w flag, which means, that no .forward files are possible 
anymore. Also, sendmail can no longer verify the existance of final users 
via getpwnam(), you have to verify them by other ways.
You have to determine yourself, if you like the u flag.
See op.me section 5.4

This should be the correct .m4 syntax:

FEATURE(`local_lmtp',`[IPC]',`FILE /var/run/dovecot2.2/lmtp')dnl
MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`LOCAL', `+u')dnl
MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`LOCAL', `-w')dnl
MAILER_DEFINITIONS
MAILER(`local')dnl
