I suspect that something is calling "/usr/bin/sendmail -v".
SENDMAIL(1) SENDMAIL(1)
NAME
sendmail - Postfix to Sendmail compatibility interface
SYNOPSIS
sendmail [option ...] [recipient ...]
...
-v Send an email report of the first delivery attempt (Postfix ver-
sions 2.1 and later). Mail delivery always happens in the back-
ground. When multiple -v options are given, enable verbose log-
ging for debugging purposes.
As you see this Postfix feature was implemented long ago.
