What do you want to link the base system with?

Currently, the base sendmail can be linked with the
security/cyrus-sasl* ports by setting:

#	SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL2
#	SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
#	SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2

in /etc/make.conf.  You could possibly link sendmail with one of the
openldap ports also.  Haven't tried it myself yet.

Note: This may cause a busted sendmail, especially during a major
version upgrade.  A rebuild of the security/cyrus-sasl* port, and
sendmail will fix it.
