That was it! I applied the "workaround" described on that page, and now
there are no error messages in the messages log anymore.

And btw, this was *not* what blocked my emails.
The email block was caused by amavisd error,
which was caused by missing File::Temp perl package,
which was caused by a recent perl update (yum update).

Solution: I installed File::Temp from MCSPAN.

Both problems ("auxpropfunc"... and File::Temp) surfaced only now that I
finally restarted sendmail.

Regards,
Jussi
