Sure, anything is possible, but if you are trying to get away from
qmail+vpopmail, you should probably move to postfix instead of sendmail
(unless you /like/ pain ;). Sendmail is a monolithic monstrosity that
is barely able to be managed by mortals. Postfix is designed (like
qmail and vpopmail), as a series of small programs that do one thing and
do it well. There should be a FAQ entry for switching to Postfix
virtual users from vpopmail; check the Postfix site...

Postfix is really user-friendly and it also comes with very good
documentation including many examples.
