No, but you need to make sure that the "host" system's sendmail isn't
listening on the jail's IP addresses using DAEMON_OPTIONS().

I run a jail system which houses 1 "host" system and three jails.  Each of
the jail's .mc files are pretty much the same as /etc/mail/freebsd.mc.  The
"host" system (zim.gshapiro.net is it's hostname) .mc file is:

OSTYPE(`freebsd4')dnl
define(`confDONT_PROBE_INTERFACES', `True')dnl
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=gshapiro.net, Addr=zim.gshapiro.net, Family=inet')dnl
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=localhost, Addr=localhost, Family=inet')dnl
FEATURE(`no_default_msa')dnl
MAILER(`local')dnl
MAILER(`smtp')dnl
