I'd suggest you DISABLE sendmail in /etc/make.conf and instead build
/usr/ports/mail/postfix20 instead

Use this HOWTO:

http://alinux.washcoll.edu/docs/plc/postfix-courier-howto.html

It's from a project I know about. However I use Exim, with MySQL
so don't ask me Postfix-LDAP questions ;)

Sendmail sucks! Postfix will make you happy. I know people who
are so happy with it.
