No.  But this would mainly be to do with issues such as whether the sendmails
were the same version as each other (different versions of UCB sendmail have
different configuration file syntax -- the joy is compounded!), and whether
the delivery agents specified by the various "mailer" options in sendmail.cf
were available on both systems.  (The local delivery agent, which is usually
something like deliver, procmail, or binmail on UNIX systems, probably won't
have an OS/2 counterpart, simply because multi-user delivery agents don't make 
sense on OS/2.  The usual OS/2 delivery agent that is used is generally the
one for LAMail or UltiMail, although others exist on places like the Hobbes
FTP site.)
