On RHEL5, dovecot 1.0.7, I have set up sendmail to use

Standard recommendation (for sendmail and other MTA) is to create alias for root.
Sendmail procedure: In /etc/mail/asises files add:
root: some-non-privileged-user
and run newaliases command to recompile aliases file.
Hm, ok, but it worked with procmail. Since we never used to check it anyways, I might just send it to /dev/null :)
(P.S. Sorry arnaj for sending you the email to you directly before... they should fix the mailing list to do this automatically IMO.)
