I hate sendmail but I love FreeBSD and I simply not use it and use Postfix.

Not sure what you mean. I use Postfix in FBSD for years now.

First describe what problems you are having exactly. General questions
will only get you general answers.

There is a general recipe for it but YMMV so be more specific and
perhaps we can be more useful.

Best,
