Sendmail logs messages via syslog. By default, I believe syslog routes mail.*
messages to /var/log/daemon.log, and this is rotated weekly by
/etc/cron.weekly/sysklogd.
If you've changed your syslog configuration, you'll have to do something about
rotation yourself.
I'm not sure what you're referring to by `runq'.
