Yes, but in the past, you could set NO_SENDMAIL in /etc/make.conf so
it wouldn't be built as part of the base system, and then build and
install one from the ports. That generally got you the
latest-n-greatest version. Or, allowed you to install a down-rev'd
version if needed for compatibility on your network.
And the one in the ports collection has gone missing since I last Or,
And perhaps I've been hallucinating again and it never was a port.
But if so, why isn't it? We've got ports for things like Adobe Acrobat,
which only fetch and install a binary. We surely could fetch and build
sendmail from Sendmail.org.
