The first looks like kvm thinks it should be doing something. If you aren't
running a kvm based server, disable kvm.
The sendmail issue os literally the daemon can't write the file. Either
disk full or permission error.  For unknown reasons sometimes the var/mail
becomes not gtoup writeable. A perm change fixed it and it didn't reappear.
