This should be avoided; in our docset (e.g., mail chapter in the
Handbook) "sendmail" is used not "Sendmail.  We don't change the case of
a command/daemon/application cause of the beginning of a sentence, if we
have to start a sentence we use "The Nm. utility" scheme.  This helps
consistency and prevents confusions when it comes to type a command.
