Since you are apparently determined to make that change, you can do it
by simply editing /etc/sysconfig/sendmail and changing the "DAEMON=yes"
to "DAEMON=no" and restart the sendmail service.  Then you can start
making note of all the mail-related things that don't work any more
on your system.  There are ways to make mail work without that daemon
process, but you have to set up a couple of other things to provide
the necessary functions.
