You should not edit freebsd.mc, it's a template.  The Makefile in 
/etc/mail will create a .mc file called hostname.mc where hostname is 
the computer's hostname.

Once you've got hostname.mc how you like, do a

make all install restart

See /etc/mail/Makefile; the targets in it can save you a lot of typing.
