Thank you to all that responded.  Although I got differing answers, the
one that kept reappearing was to put NOSENDMAIL=true in /etc/make.conf
to keep sendmail from building.  I got differing answers regarding
NOMAILWRAPPER but most said to build it.

So I put NOSENDMAIL=true in /etc/make.conf but left the NOMAILWRAPPER
alone.  Then when I ran mergemaster, I was careful not to replace
/etc/mail/mailer.conf.  Everything seems to be working OK.
