  Somewhat confirmed here.  I just checked atd on both official RHEL3
and on two versions of my own custom build of it (one as root, one as
non-root).  The non-root built version is the only one where
/usr/sbin/atd uses /usr/lib/sendmail.  My educated guess is that Red Hat
just puts /usr/sbin in the PATH for user that builds the whole system. 
For some strange reason, I can't rebuild the at rpm, now.  Getting a
failure on 4 of the tests on both my custom build and on RHEL3.  But the
atd binary is built by that point and it does reference
/usr/sbin/sendmail, so I think putting /usr/sbin does fix the above
stated problem.
