I've dealt with this and tested it numerous times. run 'chkconfig --list sendmail.' Annotate the runlevels that sendmail utilizes. Then run 'chkconfig --levelxxxxx sendmail off' and replace the xs with the runlevels from sendmail that the previous command listed as 'on.' Then run 'chkconfig --levelxxxxx mailscanner on' and replace the xs with those same runlevels as the previous command.
NOTE! This will cause the check box in the GUI indicating that the mail server is running. But the mail server IS STARTED AT BOOT!
