hi,
I modified the sendmail init script to use the "queue delivery mode" :
daemon /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -OQueueDirectory=/var/spool/mqueue.in
-ODeliveryMode=queueonly
and modified the mailscanner init script and comented out every thing
about sendmail ...
i found some very usefull explanation on the rackshack forum
(http://forum.rackshack.net), you should give look...
i you want, i can send my modified startup scripts ...
hth

PS sorry for my poor english :(
