        OK, I'm waiting for the final results.

        This is expected. Don't turn off the sendmail before removing
it from the LVS table.

        Hm, may be the checksum is not updated after a packet mangling
in the PRE_ROUTING or in the FORWARD chain. An evidence for this will be
when all LVS connections detect wrong checksum. Can you test with a fresh
kernel, eg. 2.4.7?
