www.lifewithqmail.org is probably your best bet. Follow its instructions,
choosing to use tcpserver and multilog, and skipping xinetd/inetd and
splogger/syslog.
When you're done the main installation, and have tested qmail proper, remove
any reference to SMTP or POP3 in your inetd/xinetd configuration and restart
or HUP inetd/xinetd. Stop sendmail and verify qmail-smtpd works. Then do
`rpm -e sendmail --nodeps`.
