sendmail doesn't handle local mail delivery; /usr/libexec/mail.local or
another LDA like procmail does. For instance, see "man mail.local":
-h filename
Store incoming mail in filename in the user's
home directory instead of a system mail spool
directory.
and /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/mail.local/mail.local.c:
char *HomeMailFile = NULL; /* store mail in homedir */
