Why un-install?? He can leave sendmail on the system!

All the person needs to do is to stop sendmail from automat(g)ically
starting at bootup, which is in case of RH:


Remove all occurences of 

  k**sendmail  (** denotes a double digit number)
  s**sendmail

in the directories

  /etc/rc.d/rc*.c (* denotes a single digit number)




or alternatively:

  use "ksysv"

and move all occurences of "sendmail" in "runlevel*" 
start and stop into the trashcan and then 
File -> save!
