Default Savemail panic, cannot save rejected email anywhere

I'm not sure what to do about the following lines that recently started showing up in /var/log/messages on my FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE server at home:
Code:
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n05CBoHb001464: Losing ./qfn05CBoHb001464: savemail panic
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n05CBoHb001464: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n05CBoHc001464: Losing ./qfn05CBoHc001464: savemail panic
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n05CBoHc001464: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n0684OXl004673: Losing ./qfn0684OXl004673: savemail panic
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n0684OXl004673: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n0684OXn004673: Losing ./qfn0684OXn004673: savemail panic
Jan  6 03:04:24 sendmail[4673]: n0684OXn004673: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere
I've googled for this problem but nothing I have found so far seems to apply. I checked for /usr/sbin/sendmail, and it is indeed a symlink to /usr/sbin/mailwrapper. The file /etc/mail/mailer.conf has the following:
Code:
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/mail/mailer.conf,v 1.3 2002/04/05 04:25:12 gshapiro Exp $
#
# Execute the "real" sendmail program, named /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
#
sendmail        /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
send-mail       /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
mailq           /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
newaliases      /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
hoststat        /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
purgestat       /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
I'm not sure what to check next. I have only been seeing this error message for the past few days on my system, and I do not recall having seen it at all prior to 29 December.

This system does not ordinarily send mail out; indeed I do not even own a domain to send mail out from...
