as for sendmail lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 21 Jun 18 2004 sendmail -> /etc/alternatives/mta -rwxr-sr-x 1 root smmsp 650816 May 13 2004 sendmail.sendmail

my courier is installed as default "daemon" can someone verify what the right permissions should be? is there anywhere else I should look?

This is not Courier's sendmail. This is sendmail's sendmail.

/etc/alternatives/mta should be a symlink to /usr/lib/courier/bin/sendmail, that's what you want to look at, and its permissions should be:

-r-s--x--x 1 root daemon 34248 2007-11-04 20:35 sendmail

Additionally, check /usr/lib/courier/libexec/courier/submitmkdir, its ownership and permissions should be:

-r-sr-x--- 1 daemon daemon 7528 2007-11-04 20:35
/usr/lib/courier/libexec/courier/submitmkdir

One of the above is probably wrong on your system. Although you'll be able to fix it manually, you better figure out why it broke in the first place, otherwise you'll have more mysterious problems down the road.

msgs and msgq are empty, but tmp looks like this

This has nothing to do with sqwebmail, however there's something wrong with your install. The group ownership of this subdirectory is wrong.

Check for the ownership and the permission of the installed sendmail and submit binaries.
