Please see "FILE AND MAP PERMISSIONS" at top of /usr/share/doc/sendmail/README. "If the permissions 0640 are used, be sure that only trusted users belong to the group assigned to those files. Otherwise, files should not even be group readable." I even don't see a need for the MSP user to be able to read the aliases.db. And "smmsp" is not a trusted user - and never should be one! In the past it has been one by the default Sendmail configuration, but that has been corrected by the maintainer after I informed him about this severe setup fault.
