This happens because the sendmail.cf files you received with your distribution expect the default end of line character to be newline (which is normal) but in fact on the NeXT system the default includes a return character. The fix is to edit the mailer section (line begins Muucp), sticking " E=\n," (without the quotes) onto the end of the first line.
