On replacing sendmail

You may be interested to know that exim can be used as a drop-in replacement for sendmail.

Indeed, on my system /sbin/sendmail is actually a symlink to exim.

This mainly works around the fact that many packages on Red Hat Linux require the smtpdaemon metapackage and I can't be bothered to make an exim RPM :-)
