Another potential problem with sendmail->cfs interaction is that CFS doesn't implement NFS file locking. This isn't much of an issue with a single host and a single instance of CFS, but could be a problem if the mailboxes are read and written by other machines or are remotely mounted by the machine running sendmail.
Some versions of sendmail support "dot locking", which effectively does away with this problem. Mark
