I get the following message periodically in my logs.
Timeout waiting for input from local during Draining Input
I'm running lastest sendmail on sol8 with procmail as LDA. Users .procmailrc
kick off Spamassassin 2.54 in many cases, some running SA directly, some
running spamc (altho I recall someone on this list had the exact same problem
when converting to spamc from running spamassassin in procmail.) The above
error is mentioned at the sendmail site but not with really any explanation
on how to fix it.

Minor known problems in sendmail
Delivery to programs that generate too much output may cause problems
If e-mail is delivered to a program which generates too much output, then
sendmail may issue an error:
timeout waiting for input from local during Draining Input
Make sure that the program does not generate output beyond a status
message (corresponding to the exit status). This may require a wrapper
around the actual program to redirect output to /dev/null.
Such a problem has been reported for bulk_mailer.

Gosh, I wish someone could truely explain the above paragraph. Do I need to
make a wrapper for SA?
I've set up mail with CONNECTION_RATE_THROTTLE,MAX_QUEUE_RUN_SIZE,
MAX_QUEUE_CHILDREN, and QUEUE_LA
