Here it is....no -d that I can find...
# $sendmail_command -- Pathname to the sendmail program
# usually /usr/lib/sendmail, but some newer BSD
systems
# seem to prefer /usr/sbin/sendmail
#
$sendmail_command = "/usr/lib/sendmail -v";
# $sendmail_command = "/usr/sbin/sendmail";
# $mailer -- What program and args do I use to send mail to the list?
# $bounce_mailer -- What is used to send mail anywhere else?
# The variables $to, $from, $subject, and $sender can be interpolated
into
# this command line. Note, however, that the $to, $from, and $subject
# variables may be provided by the person sending mail, and much
mischief
# can be had by playing with this variable. It is perfectly safe to

# Sendmail option -oi: Do not take a . on a line by itself as the

$mailer = "$sendmail_command -oi -oee -f\$sender";
$bounce_mailer = "$sendmail_command -oi -oee -f\$sender -t";
# You can special case the mailer used to deliver outbound mail as
follows:
#
# To use TLB and use no outgoing alias:
# if ($main'program_name eq 'mj_resend' && $opt_l eq 'test-list') {
# $mailer = "/usr/local/majordomo/tlb
/usr/local/lists/${opt_l}.tlb";
# }
#
# To use a different Sendmail queue for this list's mail:
# if ($main'program_name eq 'mj_resend' && $opt_l eq 'test-list') {
# $mailer = "$sendmail_command -oQ /var/spool/listq -f\$sender";
# }
