No. The right thing to do under redhat is to run chkconfig to turn
the service off.

Lines in inetd.conf have a variable number of parameters, beyond the
path to the program at parameter #6 and the name of the program at
parameter #7 (don't ask me why you have to specify the path and the
name separately -- botch, botch).

When you replace /usr/sbin/sendmail with a symlink to /var/qmail/bin/sendmail,
it just works.
