As of this morning, I am seeing a lot of this logged via syslog from my
sendmail 8.7.5 process running on a BSD/OS 1.1 box:

Jul  9 09:36:59 mail sendmail[901]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR: putoutmsg
(sentry.noc.dti.net): error on output channel sending "220 mail.dti.net

It seems mail is being delivered okay, but I wouldn't mind knowing if
anyone knows what is causing this...  Has anyone seen this before?

I have this in /etc/sendmail.cf:
# queue directory
OQ/var/spool/mqueue

And if I look...

mail# ls -ld /var/spool/mqueue
drwx------  2 root  wheel  512 Jul  9 10:02 /var/spool/mqueue/
mail#
