The first sentence seems clear to me. If you are using sendmail to send
mail, and don't want Emacs to pass the "-f" option to sendmail, set this
non-nil. If you want to know what the -f option does, see man sendmail.
If you aren't using sendmail to send mail, ignore it.
(The evil part is a 20+ year old joke. Perhaps you want to rename it to
a prosaic message-sendmail-specify-envelope-from.)
