Exim tookover Qmail as MTA...help~
 
Hi, i hv a CentOS box with Qmail MTA.
I found that Exim had tookover qmail as the MTA after i reboot the server.
Is that any solution to set the qmail as the MTA beside reinstall qmail?

You can run the command
Code:

system-switch-mail
and then choose the MTA you want. You'll need to install the rpm by the same name if the command is not available.

i use qmail install from www.qmailtoaster.com , it is RPM based installation, so no depency problem after updates.
if u installed qmail from source, your distro will probably reinstall a MTA (sendmail postfix or exim) after updates cause of packets depency trouble.
as a solution u can disable exim at boot:
chkconfig exim off
or u can make init script of exim unexecutable:
chmod -x /etc/init.d/exim

good luck.
