For some reasons, the admins didn't configure sendmail "the Debian

No, not at all
- is there a way to manually configure sendmail the classical way
without using the Debian configuration wrappers but cleanly against
the package upgrade? (no offense, just for people accustomed to
other OS like *BSD)
set this variable in /etc/mail/sendmail.conf
HANDS_OFF="Yes";
After setting that, the scripts become non-functional; any and all
changes must be done manually

Microsoft is a cross between the Borg and the Ferengi. Unfortunately,
they use Borg to do their marketing and Ferengi to do their
programming.
