Simplest way is to remove sendmial from your system while keepingthe
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail file and linking exim to /usr/lib/sendmial (or
some such -- see the /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail file). Otherwise, you
could create your own /etc/rc.d/init.d/exim file taking the sendmail as
an example and symlink it to where it needs to go.
