You don't need to change or rename any system programs.
Assuming that your application programs call 'mail' and not '/usr/bin/mail' then:
In your user .profile change the PATH statement to include '/usr/custombin' first.
Put your version of mail in /usr/custombin.
This seems significantly simpler than working with the sendmail configuration.
