The sendmail replacement RPM issued by RedHat Network does a
         service sendmail restart
which re-runs sendmail :-(
I stopped it doing it in future by adding intentional syntax errors to
         /etc/sysconfig/sendmail
(I added a load of text on the end explaining what I had done, which of
course generates load of sh syntax errors)
