Yes; so the real sendmail binary is still installed at
/usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail. Is that what the PHP is configured to
execute directly?
/usr/sbin/sendmail is a symlink to mailwrapper, which consults
/etc/mail/mailer.conf and calls the appropriate binary with options
depending on how it was called. I can't remember if installing Exim from
the port makes the changes to mailer.conf or you are expected to do it by
hand.
