You have another SMTP daemon already running, listening on port 25. If
you previously were running Exim or another MTA from inetd, is inetd
still listening? If so, you need to disable it - config might be in
/etc/inetd.conf or /etc/xinetd.d/<something>, or maybe your OS has a
tool to manage this.

netstat -pa | grep smtp

should show you what process is listening on the smtp port.
