This is typically a bad idea for another reason: With the amount of spam in circulation today, many - If not most - mail servers now flat out reject email that is not sent from reputable mail servers

I don't think that's an issue. The "sendmail" command doesn't try to send the email directly to the recipient's domain (unless you configure Postfix to do so); instead it contacts the local SMTP server and submits the message to it, just like Mail would. At least that's what happened when I did this.
