As someone said you can use the ports to "upgrade" to postfix pretty cleanly. If you want to play with postfix a bit before using it downloading the tarball and looking at the INSTALL document will give clear instructions on how to set Postfix up for sending only, receiving only and also to move sendmail out of the way for a final Postfix use. At least this way you have time to experiment before affecting a running system.
