Just going and taking a cursory glance at the sendmail makefile in ports:
.if exists(${DESTDIR}/etc/mail/mailer.conf) && ${PREFIX} == "/usr"
pre-everything::
@${ECHO_CMD} "#"
@${ECHO_CMD} "# You can't override the base sendmail this way."
@${ECHO_CMD} "# your version FreeBSD use mailwrapper."
@${ECHO_CMD} "#"
@${ECHO_CMD} "# Please install with normal PREFIX"
@${ECHO_CMD} "# and activate the port version with"
@${ECHO_CMD} "# cd ${PORTSDIR}/mail/sendmail && make mailer.conf"
@${ECHO_CMD} "#"
@${FALSE}
.endif
So my understanding, make WITH_WHATEVER_FLAGS_YOU_WANT=yes, && make
mailer.conf && make install.
That will override the system base.
Anyone else care to chime in here?

Take a peek at /usr/ports/mail/Sendmail/Makefile. There are tons of flags
to be thrown, and I'm willing to bet that you can make a couple of tweaks
there to get the result you wish.
If it's just throwing it on the command line, you might want to consider
putting the flags in /etc/make.conf.
But then, how that port/sendmail will interact with the system
sendmail. When re-installing the system, will I have to install the
port again?
