And in fact man 8 rc.sendmail says (under sendmail_enable in the RC.CONF 
VARIABLES section):

The ``NONE'' option is deprecated and should not be used.  It will be removed 
in a future release.

and later in the manpage:

To completely prevent any sendmail(8) daemons from starting, you must set the 
following variables in /etc/rc.conf:

           sendmail_enable="NO"
           sendmail_submit_enable="NO"
           sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"
           sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO"
