This would be grand!  I envision topics like these:

* How internet mail works (in a very small nutshell!)
* The role of sendmail (generally speaking, distinguish from user agent)
* The "out of the box" sendmail configuration FreeBSD
* When and why you might need to change it
* how to go about changing it.
* /etc/aliases hints, tips and tricks
* More about .cf files...
* Alternatives to sendmail

And maybe...

* POP
* setting up a pop server
* setting up a pop client
* setting up majordomo
