Have you checked /usr/src/UPDATING? :-)
20020404:
The sendmail startup code in /etc/rc has been changed to deal
with a non-set-user-ID sendmail binary. Setting the rc.conf
variable sendmail_enable to "NO" no longer prevents any sendmail
daemons from starting. Instead, set sendmail_enable to "NONE"
to prevent any MTA from being started at boot.
