sendmail is running on RH9.0.  I already stop it when installed
MailScanner.  I can reactivate it after deactivate MailScanner.

$ locate exim.conf
/etc/log.d/conf/logfiles/exim.conf
/etc/log.d/conf/services/exim.conf

exim.conf is not in /etc/exim/

# locate exim
/etc/log.d/conf/logfiles/exim.conf
/etc/log.d/conf/services/exim.conf
/etc/log.d/scripts/services/exim
/usr/lib/kde3/liblateximport.la
/usr/lib/kde3/liblateximport.so
/usr/share/doc/mailscanner-4.23/html/install/exim-old.shtml
/usr/share/doc/mailscanner-4.23/html/install/exim.shtml

Could not find /exim folder.

B.R.
