That is (at least on FreeBSD, so don't hate me if it's different on
OpenBSD :) the actual sendmail binary. /usr/bin/sendmail and
/usr/sbin/sendmail are just symlinks to mailwrapper, which then
invokes /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail for you, or for example qmail's
sendmail wrapper, if configured as such in /etc/mail/mailer.conf.
mailwrapper is, however, unreliable, which is why you should just use
symlinks.
