I'm not sure if sendmail treat pipe as usual file or not.
I don't have sendmail installed system handy. But I just
remember some code using sendmail via pipe only specify "-t"
option. (Perl script IIRC)

I thought we are better to remove unneeded option, if it is
not needed actually.

If it is needed for some sendmail, we are better to leave
the option as-is, of course.
