Have you read this?

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mail.html

It's a good place to start.

Read through that first, then if you can formulate a more specific 
question, post back to this list.

HINT: to enable sendmail as a daemon, make sure this is in /etc/rc.conf

sendmail_enable="YES"
sendmail_flags="-bd -q30m"

which says, 'Enable sendmail, as a daemon, flushing the queue every 30 minutes'

Then reboot.  Sendmail should be running.
