I'm not sure the problem is what you describe, but a way to find out how
it's getting called is:
/bin/cp /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail.real
echo > /usr/sbin/sendmail <<EOM
#/bin/ksh
echo "`/bin/date`: $*" >> /tmp/sendmail_calls.log
exec /usr/sbin/sendmail.real $*
EOM
chmod 555 /usr/sbin/sendmail
or something like that. I'm sure the permissions will be off, I don't
have a machine w/ exim installed handy to check. You get the idea,
though...
