You're right, I had a typo in there, sorry. :)
Where exactly are you seeing the "Warning dangerous permissions" error?
Also, I specifically UN-recommend using Spamcop as a blacklist.
(1) it's too aggressive
(2) it's not always up, and when it's down your mail server could fail
(3) spamcop themselves says not to use it in a production environemnt.
But the rest of them, sure.

Cobalt server
So, now I've had it with spam and followed your directions. everything
goes wel except for the cd /etc/sendmail, should be cd /etc/mail :-( .
But I had als this annoying WARNING dangerous write permissions. Is that
normal??

I have tried this on both a RaQ4 and a RaQ550 at current patchlevels.
Adding these blacklists made a HUGE difference in the amount of spam
arriving at the server.
cd /usr/lib/sendmail-cf
vi cf/cobalt.mc
add the following lines (or those of your own choosing, if you have
researched the issue) to the FEATURE section
FEATURE(`dnsbl',`relays.ordb.org', `Rejected - see
http://ordb.org/')dnl
FEATURE(`dnsbl',`bl.spamcop.net',`Rejected - see

see http://spamhaus.org/')dnl
FEATURE(`dnsbl',`blackholes.mail-abuse.org',`Rejected - see
http://mail-abuse.org/')dnl
m4 cf/cobalt.mc >/etc/mail/spamblock.cf
Then go to the /etc/mail directory and backup and copy over the
sendmail.cf file:
cd /etc/sendmail
mv sendmail.cf sendmail.cf.orig
cp spamblock.cf sendmail.cf
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail restart
