Very bad idea. If you really want to migrate settings from a SuSE install then take the sendmail.mc settings and rebuild the sendmail.cf from those settings on your CentOS host. And be sure you understand what settings you activate.

That's what I did, I always use my custom m4 and mc files to build the cf, sorry, if that wasn't clear.

I finally found the reason for the problem. I had moved over the mail spool with a tarball and for a reason I don't remember I tarred spool/mail from var and when untarring on the other machine that removed some privileges from /var/spool. Sorry for taking your time.
