thanks to Tom Crummey and Crist Clark
the answer is to give one of the invocations of sendmail a different PID
file option:
/usr/lib/sendmail -OPidFile=/var/run/sendmail2.pid ...
Christ point out me that when the command lines start to get this long,
he build different config files for each sendmail instance
and for those who want to use mailscanner, i finally found this message:
http://lists.mailscanner.info/pipermail/mailscanner/2006-May/060603.html
be careful that sendmail method has few changes since 2004
