Maybe, but you'll likely be creating more problems than solving.
Even the widely used PINE sets -f.
Personally, I don't know what the big deal is. If you don't like
the warning sendwhale issues, use postfix.
Another alternative for either MTA is to invoke it as
/usr/lib/sendmail -bs, then talk SMTP to it. This takes advantage
of a local queue that at times might be desirable, yet dispenses
with the -f issue altogether. I believe PINE can do this as well.
