Ideally you would be able to just remove the file, but that would
require changes in rc.conf like:
sendmail_require_cf="YES"
and code in /etc/rc that only checks for sendmail.cf if the variable
sendmail_require_cf is set to YES. On the other hand, if it really
bugs you to have /etc/mail/sendmail.cf you can create it as an empty
file, and let /etc/rc fall through the existing check.
