There wasn't an entry for sendmail in my inetd.conf so ive just put one in
myself
smtp stream tcp nowait root /usr/exim/bin/exim -bd
Does that seem ok?
Even when I run: /usr/exim/bin/exim -bd
And then connect to port 25 I get:
220 lenore.newmeja.com ESMTP Sendmail 8.12.8+Sun/8.12.8; Thu, 5 Jun 2003

Check /etc/[x]inetd.conf to make sure that it isn't catching the conection
there.
