I like to avoid sendmail all together.

Install ports/mail/ssmtp

Turn off sendmail:
sendmail_enable="NONE"          # Run the sendmail inbound daemon (YES/NO/NONE).
sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"   # Dequeue stuck mail (YES/NO).
sendmail_submit_enable="NO"     # Start a localhost-only MTA for mail submission

"A secure, effective and simple way of getting mail off a system to your
mail hub. It contains no suid-binaries or other dangerous things - no mail
spool to poke around in, and no daemons running in the background. Mail is
simply forwarded to the configured mailhost. Extremely easy configuration.

WARNING: the above is all it does; it does not receive mail, expand aliases
or manage a queue. That belongs on a mail hub with a system administrator.
