According to Michael Ryan:

Yes. 

If you want ot   restrict the queue,  try  to  add  the following  in  your
whatever.mc file and re-m4 it. 

define(`confPRIVACY_FLAGS',`restrictmailq,noexpn,noreceipts,restrictqrun')dnl

It may  be specific to 8.7.*. If you're still running  the 8.6.12 that came
with FreeBSD 2.1.0 then upgrade as soon as you can to 8.7.5.
