Okay. How about this:
cd /etc/rc.d/init.d
ln -fs exim.sh sendmail
and leave everything else intact. I hope sendmail will agree to
sleep, no??

The misnaming of fields of study is so common as to lead to what might
be general systems laws. For example, Frank Harary once suggested the
law that any field that had the word "science" in its name was
guaranteed thereby not to be a science. He would cite as examples
Military Science, Library Science, Political Science, Homemaking
Science, Social Science, and Computer Science. Discuss the generality
of this law, and possible reasons for its predictive
power.
