make disable-sendmail, I think, in /usr/ports/mail/qmail after make
install. You're prompted anyway. It writes sendmail-enable="NONE" to
rc.conf.
If you're likely to make buildworld ever, then add NO_SENDMAIL=true to
/etc/make.conf.
And /usr/sbin/sendmail is replaced by a link to /var/qmail/bin/sendmail
so anything that uses sendmail remains functional.
The docs at www.lifewithqmail.org are v good.
