This is what I've got in my /etc/rc.conf:
sendmail_enable="YES" # We run Postfix
sendmail_pidfile="/var/spool/postfix/pid/master.pid"
sendmail_flags="-bd" # smaller flags
sendmail_outbound_enable="NO" # no such requirement for Postfix
sendmail_submit_enable="NO" # no such requirement for Postfix
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO" # no such requirement for Postfix
Make sure the appropriate entries are in /etc/mail/mailer.conf.
Cheers.
