It's a cockup by me in the SuSE RPM. I forgot to remove the "conflicts with
postfix" statement when I added postfix support to it :-)

Just do an rpm -Uvh --force to pursuade it to install. I'm not sure I have
quite finished the init.d script to the same quality as the RedHat one (the
RedHat one handles sendmail, exim and Postfix all by itself with no mods).
