You could try to track down your sendmail first.

For example:

# which mail
/bin/mail
# strings /bin/mail | grep sendmail
            [- sendmail-options ...]
/usr/sbin/sendmail
# ls -l /usr/sbin/sendmail
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 21 Apr 21 23:38 /usr/sbin/sendmail -> /etc/alternatives/mta
# ls -l /etc/alternatives/mta
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 27 Apr 21 23:38 /etc/alternatives/mta -> /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail



Also you have to make sure your syslogger is even logging.

You could use strace to run mail and to follow its descendents.
