I am too, and saw as similar msg when first got going after installing
a new OS version.  A change in the sendmail config was needed.  IIRC,
all you need to do is do the "make" stuff in /etc/mail after removing
"dnl " and fixing 2nd arg in this line of the appropriate ".mc" file:

dnl define(`SMART_HOST', `your.isp.mail.server')

Last time I tried send-pr (years ago) it wouldn't work with my
sendmail config and I've been using regular mail (from a PR template
based on output of "send-pr -P") ever since.

Don't know; shouldn't hurt to try.  Or use the web form at
"www.freebsd.org".
