Certainly strange i would say. Sendmail is supposed to be started by
mailscanner, so you should see them both after a reboot. (the above
procedure works fine for my servers) I have seen other people advice
renaming the mailscanner startup script to sendmail, just to make sure
that if anthing else calles to sendmail, it actualy starts mailscanner.
May be a solution in your case.
