Agreed. Looking at this issue and mailwrapper among other config file issues.
I had set all the options in rc.conf and periodic.conf. mailer.conf still
points to sendmail binaries. I had to use ports to install Postfix to use

Postfix does not create dead.letter files.
I suspect that you are still using the Sendmail that comes with
