$ ls -l `which sendmail`
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 Mar 13 16:42 /usr/sbin/sendmail ->
/usr/sbin/mailwrapper

Read mailwrapper(8) and mailer.conf(5), configure it to point to Exim,
and make sure you have suitable sendmail_flags defined in
rc.conf{,.local}

This is a standard way for using any MTA not in the base system which
has a sendmail-compatibility executable capable of starting the daemon.
