This is the first one:

Jun  4 16:10:28 pain sendmail[17332]: [ID 801593 mail.error]
h54K1b4U017332: Milter (mimedefang): write(Q) returned -1, expected 5:
Broken pipe
Jun  4 16:10:28 pain sendmail[17332]: [ID 801593 mail.info]
h54K1b4U017332: Milter (mimedefang): to error state

h54K1b4U017332 is associated with a regular email that got delivered
normally. But I have no idea what this error means.

The other one is:

Jun  4 16:04:29 pain mimedefang-multiplexor: [ID 980602 mail.info] Slave
2 stderr: Premature padding of base64 data at
/usr/perl5/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/MIME/Decoder/Base64.pm line 109.

This could just be an error in the perl mod. Line 109 in Base64.pm is
around:

    if (length($buffer)) {
      
        ### Pad to 4-byte multiple, and decode:
        $buffer .= "===";            ### need no more than 3 pad chars
        $len_4xN = length($buffer) & ~3;
      
        ### Decode it!
        $out->print(decode_base64(substr($buffer, 0, $len_4xN))); ###
LINE 109
    }
