There doesn't seem to be a rc.conf knob for this, which I would have thought
there would be.  Look at the /etc/rc script.  Find the line that looks like

sendmail -t < $i 

and comment it out.  It's possible you will  need to replace it with a line
that does nothing of note;  I don't remember how ash deals with empty then
clauses.
