[TriLUG] sendmail restarting after being stopped

i occasionally have to shut sendmail down for an interval while
frobbing some mail files.  unfortunately, there seems to be something
that silently restarts it unpredictably.  it's a real pita.  i
haven't figured out what's doing it (rh 7.2), but i've had to resort
to renaming the sendmail binary to keep it from possibly coming back
up.

dammit, when i tell a service to stop, i mean *stop*!

has anyone else seen this, or have any idea about it?
