Derek, Thank you. Interesting that the Handbook didn't mention it. At least, this section didn't mention it and this is what I was looking to: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sendmail.html Thanks again. I set "sendmail_enable='YES'" in /etc/rc.conf (per instructions to leave alone /etc/defaults/rc.conf) and then did /etc/rc.d/sendmail restart and it worked.
