You will have to edit /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail. There are no
provisions in the startup file to pass anything except -bd and -q<time>.
What you waould want to do is edit the line:
daemon /usr/sbin/sendmail $([ "$DAEMON" = yes ] && echo -bd) \
to
something like:
daemon /usr/sbin/sendmail $([ "$DAEMON" = yes ] && echo -bd -X logfile) \
I am not sure why you want to use this option, but that will do it.
