Kevin,,

You need to uninstall sendmail. This is still listening on port 25. Sendmail is installed by default by the RedHat installation software.

Stop Sendmail to stop sendmail: (ignore errors)

/etc/init.d/sendmail stop
/sbin/init.d/sendmail stop
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail stop

Uninstall Sendmail:

rpm -e --nodeps sendmail

Link a few of the Sendmail binaries to the qMail binaries:

mv /usr/lib/sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail.old
mv /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail.old
chmod 0 /usr/lib/sendmail.old /usr/sbin/sendmail.old   
ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/lib
ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/sbin

Then start qmail:

qmailctl start

Then send the output of:

netstat -a -p | grep LISTEN
