I found something.

The script does a -HUP on sendmail, so here is what I see in maillog is:

Jul 26 10:00:02 server sendmail[19016]: restarting /usr/sbin/sendmail
due to signal
Jul 26 10:00:02 server sendmail[19018]: restarting /usr/sbin/sendmail
due to signal
Jul 26 10:00:02 server sm-msp-queue[19032]: restarting
/usr/sbin/sendmail due to signal
Jul 26 10:00:02 server sendmail[25475]: k6QE01aW025475: from=root,
size=0, class=0, nrcpts=0, relay=root@localhost
Jul 26 10:00:02 server sendmail[25579]: starting daemon (8.13.7):
queueing@00:15:00
Jul 26 10:00:02 server sendmail[25581]: starting daemon (8.13.7): SMTP


It looks like sendmail may not be ready yet...

Any ideas?
