Another idea is to modify /System/Library/StartupItems/Sendmail/Sendmail and add the following lines:

chmod go-w / /etc /etc/mail /usr /var /var/spool /var/spool/mqueue
chown root / /etc /etc/mail /usr /var /var/spool /var/spool/mqueue

Now the permissions get right every time sendmail starts up (actually, put it before the command that starts up sendmail).
